Composer crashes when setting up midi controller

[Pat401]

Hi Shelly,

Last week I upgraded from Notation to Composer so that I could use my MIDI controller with the software.

Today I've tried to set up my USB MIDI controller for the first time and Composer crashes every time I get part way. It lets me get so far, such as being able to play the test in the Device setup window, or it might even go as far as the Tap In Delay Button and then the program will crash. Windows itself doesn't crash, just Composer.

I tried unplugging my Sound Blaster Play external USB sound card and using the computers own soundcard but that makes no difference.

The controller is a Midistart Music 25, compter is an HP DV6 Notebook, 3GB Ram, Windows 7.

I wonder if a cup of coffee will help, but I suppose it's best to keep the keyboard dry. :-)

Regards,
Pat
