KarjamP, now I know what you mean and could reproduce it!
I downloaded NoteWorthy Player (old MIDI player with notation, comes with some songs, 32-bit version) from:
http://www.noteworthysoftware.com/player/
NoteWorthy Player always used the first Win8 MIDI device (device 0) as MIDI output for playback.
It was not possible to change that with any MIDI-Mapper tool.
In Win-7 32-bit with NoteWorthy Player and Puslowitsch Vista MIDI-Mapper = working, possible to change the MIDI out.
Side note, not with "MIDI Out Setter".
So, the MIDI-Mapper tools from my list can work in some cases, but NOT in all!
... Damn! .... I have to add that in my post.
Windows 8 seems to need a kind of virtual MIDI driver as Windows MIDI out device 0, which routes the MIDI data to another MIDI out device.
I know, similar tools/driver exists for "MIDI over network" and as Loopback driver to send MIDI data from "one MIDI application to another".
But it seems, there is no tool yet for Win8, that can be used as a Windows MIDI-Mapper replacement.
