Help!! How can I easily view notes being output on a single MIDI channel, in real time?
For example, I press a C key in the style section, and my arranger outputs C2, E2, G2 on Accompaniment track #4, on MIDI channel 14.
If these notes are displayed on a staff that would be great, but not essential. Even some kind of scrolling text browser, or "piano roll" would be fine, as long as I can distinguish the individual notes.
[Some of you could probably pick out the tones just hearing them, but my ear isn't that well-developed. I can tell when a desired note is missing or "off" (unexpected), but not necessarily which notes are sounding.]
The last time I did this type of analysis, I had to score a lengthy chord progression, play the chords, and then analyze the recorded sequence. Difficult, and rather boring!!
The only computer-based sequencer I've used is XG Works. That was a LONG time ago, and I'm not even sure it will run on Windows 7. So if the answer is sequencer software, I need a basic one that's baby simple and easy to use. In addition to Windows I have an iPad at my disposal, if iOS-based stuff is easier to use.
Please help me by offering some suggestions based on your experience. Thanks!!
