wine users - May 2009 - MIDI in WINE

Sorry if this has been posted thousand times over, I tried searching the forum
before posting, but came up with nothing useful.

How can I make midi to work in wine? I need it for apps like Sibelius and Guitar
Pro.

Take a look at the Reaper HOWTO and see if it helps:

or Audigy (beside Audigy SE) you can use asfxload (search for this in your
app repo ? for Debian it is in package awesfx) to load yours sound fonts
(you can find them here: http://alsa.opensrc.org/8MBGMSFX.SF2). If you have
integrated card you will have to use software synthesizer like timidity ?
you should find instructions for your distro on google (setting up timidity
can be a bit more complicated, but ONLY a bit), here are instructions for
Arch Linux:

Generally speaking ? if midi works in Linux, it will work in wine.
