Audio questions:

This is probably due to a transposing error. The audio files that are created are in the key of C, so instruments such as flute and piano can play without needing the audio transposed. Clarinets, saxophones, trumpets and many other instruments do not play in the key of C and need the audio transposed.

Transpose audio

No, the audio player is the same for both the basic and the deluxe versions.

Misc questions:

Infinite Loop Error or Overflow limit usually happens when creating custom levels when there aren't the correct notes selected. For example, if you are in 2/4 time and only have whole notes selected. This pattern is impossible and as a result the Infinite Loop Error is triggered. To fix this error, choose different notes in the custom level section.
