Upgrading to Windows 10

For the most part, NoteWorthy Composer and its companion NWC Viewer, will work fine on Windows 10. However, there is a problem with using the Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth for play back. In Windows 10, there are problems with the verification methods used by NoteWorthy Composer in Tools, Options, Midi while getting access to the requested MIDI devices. The issue and a work around is described further in our blog:

Thanks for the info.  That will be good to know when upgrading to Windows 10 in the next few days.

Version 2.75 includes a work around for the bug found in earlier Windows 10 builds. It appears as though Microsoft finally got around to fixing the Windowes 10 GS Wavetable Synth problems (apparently fixed in build 10586). This is helpful for older NWC versions.
