garageband - musical typing

Hello,

Garageband musical typing has stopped working for some reason. i've always used it and it was fine but stopped all of a sudden. i tried clicking on the keys using the mouse and it worked. but when i press the keys on the keyboard it doesn't. instead, it does some stuff in the background as if it doesn't recognize the musical typing window. for example, when i press the S key on the keyboard it plays the selected track as a solo, as if the musical typing window is closed.

please help

Make sure you have a software Instrument Track selected in the Tracks Area. When an Audio Track is selected, then the Musical Typing has no effect and the keys act as if the Musical Typing window is closed. If you look closely, you can see that the keys in the Musical Typing Window are slightly dimmed

Hope that helps
