- Notes on the Multimedia Music Library version 1.04
-
- Here are a few last minute notes on the Multimedia Music
- Library that could not be included the user's manual.
-
-
- Using MIDIBase with Recording Session
-
- If you are using MIDIBase with Midisoft Recording
- Session for Windows, make sure you set up Recording
- Session's MIDI interface parameters before switching
- to Session from MIDIBase. Also, make sure that
- Session's MIDI settings with regard to the choice of MIDI
- driver and the use of the MIDI Mapper are the same as
- MIDIBase's MIDI settings. If you are running Windows 3.1,
- MIDIBase's default MIDI setting is to use the Multimedia
- MIDI Driver. Any time MIDIBase is using the Multimedia MIDI
- Driver it will also be using the MIDI Mapper. For more
- information on this, see the section in your user's manual
- on setting up MIDIBase for MIDI.

-
- Running on Two Megabyte Machines
-
- If you experience performance or reliability problems using
- MIDIBase on machines with two megabytes of memory, try
- the following things:
-
- Turn off SMARTDRV by taking the line that launches SMARTDRV
- out of your AUTOEXEC.BAT file and restarting your computer.
- On two meg machines, we do not recommend using MIDIBase
- when SMARTDRV is on.
-
- Free up as much memory as possible before launching
- MIDIBase. Ideally, only the Program Manager should be open.
-
- If you have an MPU-401-compatible MIDI device, use the
- Midisoft MIDI Driver instead of the Multimedia MIDI Driver
- in MIDIBase's MIDI Setup dialog. The Midisoft MIDI
- Driver is faster and more efficient.
-
-
- Reinstalling the Library
-
- If you want to reinstall the library, make sure that you
- first delete the MIDIBASE directory and all of its
- subdirectories and files. Then run the SETUP.EXE program
- from your original master disks.
-
-
- MIDIBase and MIDI Editor on Different Drives
-
- If MIDIBase and your MIDI editor are on different drives,
- the Link to MIDI Editor... dialog box may not display the
- correct directory. MIDIBase will still be linked correctly,
- however, and you can still link to any other MIDI editor.
-
- If you encounter problems when exiting to a MIDI editor
- on a different drive from MIDIBase, we recommend
- reinstalling one of the programs onto the same drive as
- the other.
