Miles Sound System SDK 7.2a

Sound under Win64

Discussion

For MIDI output, the Miles Sound System can use the system MIDI hardware through the midiOut API, or it can synthesize the MIDI stream itself and feed it through the digital output system. MIDI is pretty a simple environment.

For digital audio output, however, things are a little more complicated. Miles can be configured to use either DirectSound (the preferred method) or the old waveOut audio system. On Win64, all of the sound drivers use DirectSound, so waveOut should never be necessary.

Be sure to review the How do I use multi-channel sound output in Miles? FAQ for an overview of the audio output configurations supported under Win64.
