How to play a midi file?

Post by agustin731 » Thu May 15, 2008 4:33 pm

Hello:
All I want is to play piano midi files with the maestro_concert_grand_v2.gig.
No problem with Timidity, FluidSynth and sf2 soundfonts, but I can't get my way trough Qsampler and LinuxSampler.

Some information:
Suse 10.3

LinuxSampler 0.5.1

I've loaded the instrument in Qsampler Chanel 0, but I don't know how play the midi file.

Any help welcome. Thanks. Agustín
