Even in compatibility mode? Do you get any kind of error message? Perhaps the Windows 10 sound handling changes?


I tried that. It worked in the XP mode in Win 8.

I have an old pre win95 8dot3 filename copy that will not install at all. I have a copy from about 2004 (which I think was their last attempt) that installed, worked in Win8 but won't open in Win10. I've tried this, the troubleshooter tells me to use the XP service pack 3 mode, testing does nothing, changing versions of Win doesn't help either.

I have a feeling that when GVox bought the rights to the from Microsoft, after MS bought it from Passport Designs to use the technology in Power Point, GVox cobbled something together and took some short-cuts in programming that don't work anymore (just a guess from remarks in the MTPro forum - which is now about as dead as the app).

Life moves on, I'm happy with it on the XP computers, and this summer when the work is slow, I plan on trying Cubase to see if that is a valid alternative. Like I said, I don't mind learning a new way of doing things, I just hate to take the time to learn it if it isn't going to work for me. My best guess so far from others is that either Cakewalk or Cubase have the best MIDI editing functions (better than Pro Tools) and since Cakewalk's future is insecure, that makes Cubase the best candidate.
