You're in the game now -- the hunt begins in earnest. At this point you have your strings on channels 33-36


Midi channels 1-16 are set for playback in slot 1 (Midi set-up pop down menu) -- channels 17-32 slot 2 etc. -- you can load two players to 1 slot (by holding down shift in midi set-up) -- 2 players = 16 'instances' -- for the second instance however you must MANUALLY change the midi channels in the 2nd player from 1-8 to 9-16.

IOW
instances 1/2 - channel 1-16
instance 3/4 - 17-32
inst. 4/5 - 33-48
inst. 6/7 - 49-64

John,

You should set up all 8 instruments in Player 1. MIDI playback should be set to GPO Studio: 1.

No that's not it, I'm on Mac OS 10.3.8. Anyway I put the VST plugins in the folder with GPO, which now no longer complains that it can't find it.

I don't know if that was such a good idea. You shouldn't have to move folders anywhere, and moving folders is generally very bad for GPO. I would definitely ask about this on the Northern Sounds forum.

Well it may not have been such a good idea but it *did* get GPO Studio to behave as it should -- I now get the players appearing when I click on Player 1 etc and I can load up sounds in their slots.


Do I need somehow to turn off SoftSynth, because that's where my sounds are coming from?

Yes. As I told the last time you asked this question, you need to turn "Internal Speaker Playback" in Finale OFF.

Sorry, I obviously wasn't paying attention properly. I've now turned it off. I now get no sound from strings but, oddly, the cor anglias and piano play. Whether or not these sounds are coming from Garritan I can't tell.


In Speedy, I hear the cor anglais and piano as I enter notes, but no other instruments.

In GPO Studio I have loaded:
Player 1: Slot 1:cor anglais
        Slot 2: clarinet
        Slot 3: piano
Player 2: Slots 1-5: Vln I, II, Vla, Vc, Cb

These instruments are set to channels 1 - 8, and in Finale, in the Instrument list I have assigned the channels accordingly.

Thanks, Darcy, I do appreciate you patience in replying to me.
John
