| What soundcard do I need to play the midifiles? |
|
Any Soundcard with a Wavetable, such as the SoundBlaster AWE series, or the Gravis Ultrasound, or the Turtle Beach. Alternatively, you can use a software Wavetable, for which any 16 Bit soundcard will do. |
| What software do I need to play the midifiles? |
|
Windows has a media player, which enables you to play any midifile. I prefer to use Winamp |
| I make Dub/Reggae midifiles myself and I would like to be included in the Dubroom Midi Archives. How? |
|
You can send e-mail along with any information, such as your artist name, the title of the track, and any other information you would like to share. You will receive mail back and an email adress to send midi's to. |
| I want to make a remix of a Dubroom Track. Do you mind? |
|
No. However, we would like to give you permission after
we heard the track first. So please contact us before
you put anything online!
Additionally, when the author(s) is not Sure Dread or Messian Dread, you have to contact them. They own their music.
Also you can not use Dubroom Midifiles for commercial projects without out permission.

| When I play midifiles they sound like little children keyboards. Can I still enjoy midifiles with my soundcard? |
|
Yes, you can. There are numerous software synthesizers. These programs will read your midifiles and use professional sounds to play them back. |
| When I click on a midifile link, the file starts downloading automatically, and then it is played by Media Player or Winamp. But I want to save the file, not play it. |
|
It is something very annoying indeed! The solution is quite simple: Click with your right mouse button on the link in order to open the context menus. Then select "save as...". You can then go to a map in which you can save the file for later use. |
