I just checked in to see if by chance there were any early replies, and was surprised to find your very helpful information. I appreciate your patience, and whatever step-by-step instructions you can give me.
#Aria maestosa import midi packs how to
Yes, I have the printed manuals, but the instructions always seem more concerned with showing me how to connect MIDI controllers and appply sounds to those, than with how to get sound from a lone MIDI file when no hardware is connected. Where do I go to get each track producing sound, or all of them at once? And, after I get my sound, how do I change those instruments to others already installed? How the programs access them, I have never quite understood.Īnyway, today I have successfully opened a MIDI file in Logic, and got it to "play." Unfortunately no sounds were applied automatically (as they were in the other programs), so I hear nothing. I don't know if the computer came with a simple GM set, or if each program installed its own set, but generally they are sufficient for my needs, with a few exceptions, and that is why I installed two or three Jam Packs and other soundfonts. To be honest, to this day I do not know where my software instruments have come from in the other programs.
I had been putting off using Logic just to avoid the learning curve, but today I have finally got started. I also have a few other free soundfonts downloaded and installed, which have been working fine in Garageband. From there, within GB, I substituted other installed instruments, such as whatever came with the computer, and a few Jam Packs that I bought and installed separately, having verified that they would all work in Logic 7 also, eventually.
In Garageband I simply imported the MIDI file (via various means, including Dent de MIDI), and Garageband usually guessed automatically regarding which sounds to apply to each track. My only need for the program at the moment, is to re-touch MIDI files that I download for the Internet, and make them into accompaniment files that I can export to mp3 and then use, to play along with on my saxophone. I do not want to connect any MIDI controllers to the computer or any other hardware.

For five years I've been using Garageband, Audacity, Qmidi, Aria Maestosa, and other simpler sequencer programs at home, and now I have Logic Pro 7 on a Mac. I am an intermediate musician with no recording-studio experience.
