Follow these steps to download, verify, install and configure the Ubuntu/Kubuntu 24.04 amd64 production .deb. This install guide is separate from the main User Manual.
The expected SHA256 is shown on the Downloads page and in SHA256SUMS.txt.
4. Install or upgrade the package
Install the .deb package with apt so required system dependencies can be handled cleanly. If an older Linux package is already installed, you can install this package directly over the older package; you do not need to uninstall first.
Open MIDI Manager from the application menu or start it from a terminal for diagnostics.
musicnote-haven-midi-manager
6. Choose folders in Settings
Choose separate folders for source files, organized output, archive and generated output. Select a SoundFont if you want playback.
7. Apply settings
Click Apply. The app confirms that settings were saved and applied. Then return to the Dashboard.
8. Build the source index
Use the Dashboard/source-index workflow so Search and Library Organizer can see the files.
After Source Index is ready, Search & Filter shows indexed files and the consolidated device, content and analysis filters.
9. Optional: uninstall or clean start
This step is optional. Use apt remove only when you want to remove MIDI Manager, or use the clean-start helper only for a deliberate troubleshooting reset of local user data.
sudo apt remove musicnote-haven-midi-manager
musicnote-haven-midi-manager-uninstall
