MC5 on a win7x64 machine
Greg and Herb -
I'm NOT trying to say you're wrong or lying or anything, but I have been bugged by the advice that you guys have been giving about having to "run in XP emulation mode" for MC5 because I didn't think it was necessary.
and again - I'm not doing this to prove you wrong - there may be cases that it IS necessary that I am not seeing. but I found my MC5 disk (it wasn't where I thought it was!) and I installed it tonight and had no problems with installation, no problems with it running the wave profiler, although it defaulted to MME driver mode, it DID work correctly. I opened a project I had created in MC5 for learning purposes and it opened fine and played correctly.
I couldn't get the loop preview to work that Bobby was having problems with. for some reason the TTS-1 that loaded with the project didn't have any output at all and I couldn't seem to get it enabled, so I deleted it and added it back in and then it worked fine.
I did not do any of the instructions on the link that Greg provided from cakewalk, I just installed MC5 from the disk and ran it. plain and simple.
I'm not sure what's causing some people to have to "run in XP mode" but it works fine here.

Cool. I was just going by what the knowlegebase (or FAQ, whichever) said. Not having MC 5 to try it, I defaulted to the literature.
I'm thinking of doing that cheap MC sidegrade thingy so I can get Sound Center.

go for it! sound center alone is worth $20 (that's the price, right?). and if you don't have any good piano or synth sounds I'd bet the expansion packs are worth $20 each, too.

Hit a snag. Both MC 2003 qnd Pro 24 were registered under my old email address. I don't remember what account name I used and password. It was, after all, 7 years ago. I do remember the email, though.

Reece, have you tried setting it up with your interface, and not the factory card on MME?
And yeah.. the Sound Center additional sound packs are worth the price. I have World & Steinberg pianos.... both are nice.

Greg, check the account that you used to register SHS6. Is the older stuff showing there? In any case, that should be your current account. Sound Center has a nice set of patches from DimPro and Rapture, and you can run it in SHS6 once it is installed, if you choose.

Yes, that's what I was trying to say. first of all, I have my onboard soundcard disabled in BIOS so it won't use that at all. but it defaulted to MME when starting up even with my MOTU and that worked, but I changed it to ASIO right away and that worked fine, too.
