Box Of Stops is designed to use the on-board sound of a Midi keyboard and/or a Midi synthesizer.  It then plays back multiple sounds on these, taking advantage of the fact that there are lots of channels available in Midi.  Please see [http://boxofstops.com/howitworks-action here] for more detail.

Under construction

How do you make it start? And then how to you make it stop?

This is the page to read to read if you're trying out Box Of Stops and not hearing anything. As with any organ, unless everything is connected, it won't play.

Where does the sound come from?

Box Of Stops is designed to use the on-board sound of a Midi keyboard and/or a Midi synthesizer. It then plays back multiple sounds on these, taking advantage of the fact that there are lots of channels available in Midi. Please see here for more detail about the playback mechanism.

By default Box Of Stops will send all output to the first available Midi device. If this is not what is wanted for some or all of the stops, please look into setting the output device on a stop.
