Hello Laura/larason2,
Very briefly (since we don't officially support the Hauptwerk v4 Free Edition):

That isn't actually quite correct in the case of Hauptwerk's built-in MIDI player, which always uses and requires the special, fixed MIDI implementation that's described for the currently-loaded organ by the '
Recording | View MIDI recorder/player/sequencer MIDI implementation (for this organ)' menu function (see also the '
Recording and playing back live solo performances: the built-in MIDI recorder/player and its fixed MIDI implementation' section in the main Hauptwerk user guide -- page 181 in the v4.2.1 version -- and the '
MIDI recorder/player/sequencer MIDI implementation' section -- page 226-227).
Hence if loading a MIDI file in Hauptwerk's MIDI player you need to make sure that the file has been saved to use that specific MIDI implementation.
Alternatively, if you wanted to interface Sibelius directly to Hauptwerk (rather than using Hauptwerk's built-in MIDI player), see the '
Composing pieces off-line from MIDI notation software' section in the guide (pages 194-199 in the v4.2.1 version).
Best regards, Martin.
Hauptwerk software designer/developer, Milan Digital Audio.
