Midi

Ok who knows how to access the MIDI instruments and get the different notes and stuff like a keyboard. If i click a command button i want it to play the Middle C key.

You can do that with DirectMusic I think... don't quote me on that though.

yeah the sad part is..i dont know anything about DirectX and DirectStuff..

You should be able to find something on the net, just do a search on google. If you find anything, let me know, Id like to do something like this in my spare time.

There is a wealth of info in the MSDN: Platform SDK->Graphics And Multimedia Services->Multimedia Audio->Musical Instrument Digital Interface

ok cool.

the website for msdn is msdn.microsoft.com right? i dont really go to msdn that often...i'll check it out though.

where is the topic you were talking about? Library or Code Center?

also i am using visual basic you do know that right? not Visual C++

You should at least be able to read C++. If you have any questions, just ask me, or in the C++ forum. It's not all that different.

It's in the Library.
