Thanks, Brad. Next question! I'm on WinFin 2003 & I must have something hooked wrong, my MIDI (a very ancient YamahaPSR-38) works OK for input in speedy, but when I try to put it to MidiThru - (which , I believe means I hear notes as I input them, yes? no?) the whole thing freezes- even caps lock etc won't work. Literally, as I click on "midi thru", it freezes. So switch off, reboot, start again! I think this is the only cause of the freeze-up. I hope so anyway. Any thoughts, suggestions??
