Midipipe For Windows
I am looking for something like the apple based midi pipe for windows pc. A utility i can insert in the midi stream that creates a virtual midiport and is.
I was wondering if anyone could help. I use my Yamaha Dtxplorer electronic drums to record drums on my iMac's Garageband program. I use a program called 'midipipe' to assign the correct midi drum pad sounds before the signal goes into Garageband, and then I use the 'EZdrummer' plug-in to get more realistic drums sounds. Here's the problem.
In June 2011, I upgraded my iMac to 'Snow Leopard' (Mac OS 10.6.7), and at the same time, I upgraded Garageband to Garageband '11 (ie Garageband 2011). Now that I did those 2 upgrades, I can no longer get midipipe to work in any way.
There are NO drums sounds coming out through midipipe now, and when trying to tweak the settings, there is no longer any way to click the 'hijack' checkbox on the midipipe 'midi in' setting. The 'hijack' button is now 'greyed-out' and cannot be selected. Now I can no longer use my drums with Garageband, which is really, really disheartening. It seems like all I run into with my iMac and Garageband is nothing but problems and glitches that are making me considering recording my music on a Windows computer, and ditching my iMac altogether. I've already tried repeatedly to create new 'pipes' with midipipe, but nothing will work since I cannot select the 'hijack' button anymore. This problem occurred only after the Garageband and iMac upgrades, and midipipe used to work PERFECTLY with garageband and ezdrummer before.
Midipipe For Windows
Nothing else in my set-up has changed. If anyone has ANY possible solutions, please help.
I've wasted so much time with this computer already. All I want is for it to work properly. Thank you very much in advance. Rich iMac Posted on Jul 11, 2011 3:28 PM.
No, I've had no luck trying to figure out the problem, which started ever since I upgraded my iMac and upgraded Garbageband. No replies except yours, and I googled a bunch of web pages trying to find an answer. The guy who programmed the Midipipe program didn't reply either. I'm thinking about getting a Windows computer to record music, along with Protools. Have horrible luck with Garageband since the day I bought my iMac, unfortunately. Nothing but glitches and problems.
But I wish you (and anyone else running into the same problem) the best of luck. I just don't have the patience for the contstant obstacles when trying to use an Apple Mac to record songs.
