Choose MIDI Setup from the MIDI menu.
In the MIDI Setup dialog box you can edit a number of settings pertaining to your MIDI interface setup.
Tip. To test if your MIDI output device supports matching note on/off messages, open a new default document. Enter a whole note middle C in the first measure in layer 1. Switch to layer 2, and then in the same measure, enter a half note on middle C and then a half note on D. Play the measure back. If the whole note C gets cut off with the half note C (you can’t hear the C against the D), the MIDI device does not support matching, but NotePad thinks it does - uncheck Match On/Off. If the whole note C continues to play over the barline, the MIDI device supports matching, but NotePad thinks it doesn’t - check Match On/Off. If you can hear the C against the D, and they both cut off at the same time, NotePad is setup correctly.
Note. SoftSynth requires DirectX 8.0 or higher. DirectX is Windows® technology that enables higher performance in graphics and sound.
