I'm using the above programs and while I can get the XG midi working well with the VistaMidiMapper just by playing a midi file in Windows Media player, I quickly get errors out of Loopbe1. Loopbe1 says that I'm getting midi feedback and not to connect midi in and out within the same application. When this happens the midi playback crashes and I have to basically reload the plugin within Vsthost.

So, I'm guessing the problem is how I've set the midi routing up within Vsthost but I don't know how to resolve it. I've tried several combinations of Midi Out/In/Through but nothing seems to work. Has anybody got this working correctly?

edit: I'm using windows 7 64 bit and I've read that loopbe1 is the only virtual midi device to support 64bit.

edit: I read on vgmusic.com that loopbe1 has problems with many midi effects so I'm using midiyoke instead. Apparently midiyoke can't work with 64bit applications but other than that it seems to work well.

edit: I guess I spoke too soon. Now I'm having a similar problem where the midi synth starts going out of whack after subsequent plays. I don't know if this is feedback like before or what.
