i think it's because i'm on windows 11.

you are on windows 10, and it works.

messing with compatibility didn't help.

for my final test i'm closing down chrome completely.

didn't matter. tyrus 1,256,000,000 ver and vampire do not load, and it's definitely the 32 bit player

test version didn't change anything.

Hi,
I meant a screenshot about the ...About box where the versions can be seen.
BTW, I have just tested also the newest test version on Win 11 and it works perfectly :

Some things you can try:
1. Try to run FSMP as Administrator (although this is not needed, maybe it can show what kind of problem you have).
2. Make sure the dll is not blocked by Windows (blocked state is the default for downloaded files).

and after the reboot no vstis are playing any audio with midiplayer6!

okay that seems to be caused by running the test version.

okay rebooting my computer did fix it.

But it seems m-audio gm module and hypecanvas vsti don't load. hypercanvas requests to be reinstalled twice, and then shows the "not a 32 bit" error, and m-audio gm module gives an access violation. both function with savihost.

I have just noticed your edit.

I have also tested Roland/Edirol HyperCanvas and it also works perfectly:

So you should check the usual things...

I do not know what 'm-audio gm modul' is so I could not test it.

and after the reboot no vstis are playing any audio with midiplayer6!

There must be some serious problems with your system... What kind of Antivirus do you have? It seems some files are randomly blocked on your system.
BTW, VSTi plugins use the same audio path as SF2 soundfonts. So you should check what audio hardware is selected and what mode is selected (WASAPI/Diretsound) on the 'Device settings' dialog.

okay got audio working again. that was annoying. I'm not too worried about hyper canvas. i think the issue is probably DRM related. the m-audio gm module is supposed to be hardware locked.

HI,
I’ve been going crazy for a few days with these C++ libraries: https://github.com/craigsapp/midifile, trying as you know to automate some patch inside midi.

I'm obtaining some reuslts... but I'm failing when trying to add msb and lsb in a midi and in the porper order before the PC.

Doing tons of test I've noticed that this function is already included in your player and works perfectly, so now I'm loading each file, I'm opening log event windows and then I'm saving the midi.
In this way I've msb and lsb set to 0 in the proper order for each track, and I'm doint some test with my project to patch instruments list according to synth.

I would like to ask, can you make an exe so that i can run a .bat and automatically patch adding msb and lsb to each midi files instead of doing this manually (as you know I torture myself with hundreds of midi files).

Thank you.

Aldo

Hi Aldo,
Unfortunately nowadays I'm rather busy with other stuff so I do not think I will have the time to write something that you need.

Hi,
thank you for your answer. I'm doing this right now, manually, but please when you'll have time try to consider this.
Your software already does this perfectly... it would just be great a dos prompt batch like mod2midi to make this conversion.
Thank you for your time.
