Remember too, that many of these people had no Music training and they approached it scientifically - Which confuses everything if you know how it has traditionally worked. Of course one of their C's on the way up "had" to be designated C0 - and while Beethoven just rolled over one more time, that's what diehard computer people do. started from the first C in their scale, which was I guess two octives lower than the C1 on a piano. Instead of leaving Middle C designated as C4 they did what most techies do. The C5 designation for middle C is a creation of the computer programers who found that Midi could go at least two octive lower than conventional music. You're getting confused because you know MUSIC. Then I recorded a MIDI middle C from my keyboard into MC - It came out a Middle C in staff viewĪnd of course the pitch of A and B matched.ĪLSO of course MC is showing all these middle C's in the Piano Roll View as C5. I manually entered a middle C in staff view and compared the pitch to my keyboard. I ran a few tests, and Infinitude, I think you're trying to over-engineer this Ī. Let us know more about exactly what's happening and we'll try to help you. There are a lot of questions you've left unanswered before you can get very much help. That way you know what data you are actually sending to MC. Try opening the MIDI event data and verify that you are actually sending C4 from your keyboard instead of C5. How are you "noticing" that Middle C is C5 in staff view? Are you playing MIDI data on your keyboard and capturing it in MC, then opening Staff view and showing that it is recorded as C5? When you play C4 on your keyboard - are you monitoring what the synth in the MC is playing and does it sound like C4 or C5? Are you using softsynths in your sound card or using a plug in? What kind of keyboard are you using and what is it's set up? Are you certain that you are playing C4 on your keyboard (sorry.had to ask!). so, if I print the sheet music from cakewalk and play it in a standard keyboard will it be one octave higher ? pls somebody enlighten me on this matter.thanks a lot. NOTICE, however, that this page also states that Middle C can be KEYBOARD specific and that some boards my use C5 as Middle C.īut I noticed when I was in the staff view layout of cakewalk the middle C is C5. Who are "they"? C4 is "Middle C" in Western music. This may sound stupid but I was just wondering which one is middle C ? they say C4 is the middle C.
