Hello Everyone,
I'm Rob from Sydney, Australia, where it's always cool, just not in summer.
I'm using StaffPad as my notation software. http://www.staffpad.net/
I have written a piece in 80 bpm, and saved it as a midi file. When I load it into Pianoteq Stage 5, it plays it at 120 bpm, and even if I change the tempo, nothing happens.
Any thoughts on how to get it to play at 80 bpm?
Cheers
Rob
Hi Rob,
After you load your midi file into Pianoteq there is a pianoroll type representation of your file just below the menu bar. Just to the right of this is a string showing the current position within the midi file and the current playback speed. Click on this string and you will see a drop down menu allowing you to select the playback speed.

Hi John,
Thank you very much for this. It now works like a beauty. I'm loving this program. Now my music sounds like the real thing.
Cheers

I'd expect that if you explicitly specify a tempo for the piece in the score-writing program the exported MIDI file will play at that bpm by default at 1.0x speed in the Ptq MIDI player. (I use MuseScore; there it's Insert text -> Tempo -> choose one of Adagio, Largo etc and manually adjust bpm.)

Things have moved on... if it's not obvious (which it wasn't to me) you click on the x1 (default) speed just under the track time and it brings up a menu with a number of options one of which is playback speed - think I'll be using this to show me what notes to play
