    Dear all,

    Downloaded free Anvil Studio a few days ago. Stumbled into problems getting
    the 'MIDI Out' running correctly. I fail to be able to playback MIDI files
    via my computer on my synth. On the other hand: playing on my synth
    manually, shows via 'MIDI In' within Anvil, so recording works correctly. In
    Anvil Studio, from the menu I ran 'View|Synthesizers' and in the appearing
    window I set both 'MIDI In Port' and 'MIDI Out Port' to 'MPU-401'; also in
    this window I unchecked 'General MIDI' from the 'Synthesizers' checkbox, no
    other synth shows.

    Computer: Windows XP SP1 Home Edition; latest Anvil Studio software;
    soundcard is pretty standard but has MPU-401 compatibility.

    Synthesizer: Yamaha SY22. I checked the wonderful Yamaha Corporation of
    America SY22 Knowledgebase for my setup. All done exactly as told, but still
    no result.(To find the KB - it's a lengthy URL- run a google on 'sy22 xp
    driver'; the KB URL appears on the first query result page.)

    So: anyone with a perfectly running computer/Anvil Studio setup may perhaps
    be able to point me to some nasty setup thingy that I must have missed...?
    Any and all help is highly appreciated. Thanks!

    Kind regards,
    Si Ya Anvillain
