Project
on Linux, Musescore 2.0.3: I've configured MIDISightReader to use my MIDI keyboard, but i don't see any debug telling me it started, nor see notes change red.
It's as if its dying.
Any way to debug this so i can see whats failing?
Comments
I have added a comment about using Linux to the plugin page (https://musescore.org/en/project/midi-sight-reader).
It works for me on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64-bit.
Latest Musescore 2.3.2
java -version
java version "1.8.0_101"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_101-b13)

I would REALLY like to get this sight reader plugin working.
At present I think all the paths and permissions are OK but it won't work.
The error is usually "Invalid Midi Device USB Keystation 61es or Keystation Mini 32" depending on whether I try modifying the properties file.
Is there anything you could suggest?
Many thanks
Chris
