Electronic Organ
12/20/08 - Dave B. from St. Paul Lutheran in Amhearst, NH is looking for options for controling the organ and digital piano from his Mac Book Pro. He writes:
"We currently use HymnSoft on a laptop PC to play our organ when we have no one to play.
I would like to control the organ and our Yamaha piano from my MAC Book Pro to play hymns and other midi files. I have a 1x1 midi adaptor which allows me to record from the piano using the Garage band application, but I can’t seem to get it to play either the piano or organ from the computer.
Am I missing a setup item, or do I need other software? The MAC will emulate a PC but it doesn’t work with HymnSoft as there are delays which ruin the sound.
Does WELS sell or know of any software other than Hymn Soft?"
Can anyone share knowledge with Dave and others in the same situation? If so, please update this page! Thanks!

Without knowing which midi interface he is using, I can't be sure of the problem. However, I do know that not all midi interfaces are created equal. A quick google turned up this comment:
http://www.yamaha-keyboard-guide.com/yamaha-p70-midi-interface-problem.html "After trying the Yamaha UX16 and Edirol interfaces with my Yamaha P-70 keyboard controller, I was very frustrated and couldn't seem to get my laptop to recognize the controller. I finally found the answer. I ordered the E-MU 1x1 interface from Guitar Center ($29.95) and it works perfectly connected via USB into my MacBook Pro for use with GarageBand and Logic. Now my Yamaha P-70 works great with all the MAC sounds and JamPacks. Don't bother with the Edirol or UX16 as the E-MU is the USB answer!" For $30 it sounds like an easy thing to check. --- Eric |
