Troubleshooting C-5
Insufficient
SoundFont Cache
There is insufficient memory to load SoundFonts.
This may occur when a SoundFont-compatible MIDI file is loaded or played while insufficient
memory has been allocated to SoundFonts.
To allocate more SoundFont cache:
• On the
Options
tabbed page of the SoundFont Control applet, move the SoundFont Cache
slider to the right.
The amount of SoundFont cache you can allocate depends on the system RAM available.
If there is still insufficient system RAM available:
• On the
Configure Banks
tabbed page of the SoundFont Control applet, select a smaller
SoundFont bank from the
Select Bank
box.
The smallest SoundFont bank available is 2 MB (2GMGSMT.SF2).
Problems With
Joystick
The joystick port is not working.
The audio card’s joystick port may be conflicting with the system’s joystick port.
To solve this problem:
• Disable the audio card’s joystick port and use the system port instead. Do the following:
1. Click
Start
->
Settings
->
Control Panel
.
2. In the
Control Panel
window, double-click the
System
icon.
3. In the
System Properties
dialog box, click the
Device Manager
tab.
4. Double-click
Sound, Video And Game Controllers
, and then select
Creative Gameport
Joystick
.
5. Click the
Properties
button.
The trade-off of a smaller
SoundFont file is its lower
sound quality.
