Midi Library Access Problems

So I have been using Guitar Pro (a midi-based guitar tablature program), but now it, and audacity, refuse to access the midi library correctly. If I play a midi song on Windows Media Player and while it's playing play a guitar pro song, the guitar pro song will actually play. Anyone know how to fix this?

Also: Audacity (unlike guitar pro) gives me an error message:

Error while opening sound device. Please check the output device setting and the project sample rate

I viewed it but i can't help =( I have guitar pro but I only download the tabs to practice songs with.

Your midi driver might be corrupted? You might have to reinstall i dunno



None.

Thanks for at least putting that little bit down, at least the despair has faded a tiny bit.

We can't explain the universe, just describe it; and we don't know whether our theories are true, we just know they're not wrong. >Harald Lesch

I wasn't sure what was happening (not very detailed description) and was far from having an educated guess why, so I waited if someone else has something before jumping in with my nonsense. ;)

Wait, what you're saying is that you are using your guitar pro the same time you use Windows Media player and WMP just doesn't play (as does Audacity but with an error message)?

Sounds like guitar pro is somehow blocking your sound card. I know that from former times when I record something I can't start another recording. Maybe it's something related. There might even be an exclusive / multi mode setting on your sound card or in guitar pro.
You could always try reinstalling both sound drivers and guitar pro since - if I understood you right - it has worked at some point in the past. Don't forget to completely remove them first. We don't want to have any settings file or reg entry be left over.

NimoStar -- If its any consolation, the human brain would still mop the floor with this bot if it wasn't limited by the mechanical interface

NimoStar -- Well. The bot didn't come up with any new strategy. It just has superhuman micro. Hard to beat that. I reckon even the simplest dedicated chess engines are unbeatable for humans now.

Oops, caught me there, no I haven't. :( I was imagining how the game went. Sorry for that. Watching it now. brb

NimoStar shouted: They were not "Unprepared" that was their fifth loss in a row against the bot. The other replays are also available
that doesn't mean he was prepared. When humans come around with new strategies it often takes weeks until the pros figure out how to shut it down. Oh_Man that's certainly a way more convincing argument for micro being "too good to beat".
