Staff view changing clef

There's a layout icon with a staff and a high g on it--click that, then click 'clef' and change it to bass. (or bass and cleff for keys)

I'll do that as soon after I get home (about noon CST). I've been scratching my head on this one, but I don't know enough about it. Maybe giving you my settings will work. We'll see!

For the record I also enter notes on the keyboard. I just edit them in piano roll view and staff view. I would never have the patience to enter a whole piano piece in prv, but I admire those that do!

Are you running both the delta card and your onboard sound card, the one that came with the computer. If so, disable the onboard card.

Is that patience or wasting time!


We have definately had some rather spirited discussion around here on the virtue of having the built in card enabled. While I agree that in many cases it can be better to disable it, but i believe that is mostly due to lack of setup knowledge with this kind of software (on the part of the newbie not the one helping). Again there are situations where it is necessary, but in most cases if you know what you are doing they can get along quite nicely. There are lots of people who advocate disabling, there are others that view the built in as important to handle everyday jobs with windows, giving the window sounds somewhere to go. Once again you can diasble all windows sounds, but not everyone can use the system as a dedicated DAW. This is my third home built system for Music and I have never had a conflict with the two cards, and never disabled one. JUST MAKE SURE that each card has a separate IRQ address. Here in lies the problem, sometimes cetain systems do not have an open IRQ address, so it comes down to need. I would bet that 9 out of 10 issues are windows not the cards.

Look at it this way, how many folks come here and say "no sound no midi, i have tried everything and everything is setup right, what is wrong?" Most of them turn out to be a very simple issue. Usually a wave profiler or something like that. I know of some folks that put two different cards in, matbe one Sound Blaster and one Delta, and use the Delta for audio out, and download a good sound font set and use the sound blaster as a synth, by attaching the S/Pdif connections. In fact there is a guy over at audiominds that posted a nice description of how to take a second computer and make it a synth box, using a SB live card.

Don't take this as a knock on the disable crowd, there is merit for that at time. Just another view.

Hi Mamabear thanks very much.

For Windows Volume Control, it's START/PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/ENTERTAINMENT/WINDOWS VOLUME CONTROL. Then click PROPERTIES TAB.

I've got various driver options there to select for recording, playback, voice, MIDI.

In the bottom right, I also have the Delta icon - that brings up the new Delta control panel...I'm frightened to even look at that!

Cheers

Rob P: when I go to properties I just get a choice of mixer devices which is Delta 1/2. (You shoulda heard the Delta rep laugh when I called it the Delta one-half!) ;)

Anyway, playback is checked and it says 'show the following volume controls' (which are all checked) Wave, sw synth, CD player. I imagine that's not the info you needed, but that's all I can find.

Don't be frightened to look a the Delta icon. I haven't got a clue what it does, but I can still make music! :) (but probably someone here helped me set it up correctly awhile ago...) Good luck. And don't give up!
