Re: [Finale] MIdi Export Files

[Lon Price]

Since he's using Digital Performer, he's on a Mac.  What he needs to do is boot up DP first, and then open the MIDI file from the "open" dialog within DP, rather than double-clicking the file itself.  You don't import MIDI files into DP, you just open them from within the program. ******************************************** Lon Price, Los Angeles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://www.txstnr.com> On Jul 26, 2006, at 4:33 AM, Cecil Rigby wrote: Neal, the files aren't "coming through as QuickTime files." It's that his computer is set to open all files of .mid extension with QuickTime. Tell him to change the extension or, if he's on Windows, simply right-click the file and use the Open command line to select which program will open the files. -Cecil Rigby [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Original Message -----  From: "Neal Gittleman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <finale@shsu.edu> Sent: Tuesday, July 25, 2006 4:35 PM Subject: [Finale] MIdi Export Files Greetings... I'm trying to help a friend with a project... I've saved a two Finale files (FinMac2k6c) as a Standard Midi File (with each line as a separate track) and sent him the files, which have .mid extensions. His reply: Thanks for sending the files, however, if you saved them as Standard Midi Files (.smf) they are coming through as Quicktime files which I can play back on the computer but can't import into Digital Performer. Any ideas what I say back to him? Thanks... ng _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
