If the key doesn't turn red on the on-screen keyboard, click 'Devices' from the 'Options'
menu in the Sound Studio software. If there is more than one MIDI Input device showing in
the Input column on the left hand side, then try selecting each of the MIDI Input drivers
individually in turn to see if they work.
If nothing is showing in the Input column on the left hand side and you are using the USB
cable then you should reinstall the USB drivers that are on the Evolution Software Pack CD-
ROM. Full instructions can be found in the USB Driver Guide. Simply click on Start then
Programs, select Evolution then Music Creator Docs and click on USB Driver Guide, or go to
www.evolution.co.uk/faqs
If you are using the Joystick cable and nothing is showing in the Input column then you
should re-install your soundcard software. Once you have done this, reboot your PC and
check in ‘Devices’ from the ‘Options’ menu in the Sound Studio software to see if you have a
MIDI IN driver listed. If you have but it doesn't work then make sure you have the most up-to-
date software drivers for your soundcard. It is worth getting in touch with your soundcard
manufacturer to ask them for the latest drivers. It is also quite common to find the updated
drivers on the manufacturers’ web site.
Another option is to go into your control panel and double-click on "Add New Hardware".
Click on Next. When it asks for automatic detection of hardware - click No. Click on Next.
Scroll down to the "Sound Video and Game Controllers” section. Click on Next. In the
manufacturers section - go to "Microsoft". Click on the "MPU401" compatible driver option
on the right hand side. Click on Next. It will now install the driver. You may need to insert
your Windows CD-ROM. Follow the instructions. Reboot your machine. Run Sound Studio
and select the MPU401 driver for input and output from the Options / Devices menu.
A more detailed trouble shooting section can be found at www.evolution.co.uk/faqs
This process of setting up your soundcard must be carried out for each software
program that's included in the Evolution Music Creator Software Pack.
Software Guides and Tutorials can be found in each program's Help Text by pressing
the F1 key.
