The Clavinova, depending on its age, would be expected to be able to handle GM or XG files - though if the files were made for Roland they may not sound great on Yamaha & vice versa, as the voicings & sonic spec were very different. My eye was drawn to 'Mighty Midi', on the second page - though I haven't tried it myself. If you just need simple playback through your MIDI interface to your Clavinova, then maybe something on may help. The music came from my Clavinova, not from the computer. I ran Aria Maestosa, selected my MIDI interface via the "Output" menu, imported a MIDI file, then pressed the "play" buttons.

I fell back to Aria Maestosa 1.4.9 for Mac OS X 10.6, dated. The current newest version of Aria Maestosa, 1.4.10, requires Mac OS X 10.7 or above. Starting with version 1.4, it "Support sending midi output to external devices". This is a MIDI editor/sequencer which is GPL licensed.

The specific software I found to play MIDI files on my external device was Aria Maestosa. I'll quote Tetsujin's helpful definition for 'sequencer' and 'digital audio workstation':Ī "sequencer" is the descriptive name of a piece of software originally designed specifically for the recording/playback of MIDI data These days, you would expect that one could also deal with audio recordings, software instrument plugins etc.Ī DAW is a 'digital audio workstation'.

Most software I found which claimed to "play MIDI files" did so using QuickTime or their own code to make sounds. It seems like the wording I'm looking for is "plays MIDI files on an external device". I see references to "sequencers" and "DAWs" in articles like Wikipedia's List of MIDI editors and sequencers, but the article doesn't really explain whether a "sequencer" or "DAW" is supposed to do what I am looking for. I think part of the answer will be to explain what that MIDI-relay utility is called. I suspect I want a different kind of utility, which relays the contents of the MIDI file to the MIDI interface, for the keyboard to receive and play. Quicktime Player and VLC generate sound themselves, so they don't seem to do what I want. How can I make the notes in my MIDI file example.mid play on the MIDI keyboard, via the Mac OS X 10.6 laptop? I don't want the Mac OS software to make sounds, I want the Clavinova to make the sounds. Thus, I think I have the laptop connected to the Clavinova correctly. I can play notes on the keyboard, and have them appear in the MuseScore notation app. Audio MIDI Setup's "Test Setup" feature will make my keyboard play notes. Using Apple's Audio MIDI Setup utility, I have configured the interface. The laptop is connected to a MIDI keyboard (old Yamaha Clavinova, if it matters) via a Roland UM-One mk2 USB-MIDI interface.

I have a MIDI file example.mid on my Mac OS X 10.6 laptop.
