 == Early Notes ==
 If you receive this error when Compiling in Magma:
   ERROR: MIDI Compiler:
- c:/documents and settings/rbn/desktop/rbn/artist/artistsong.mid (PART GUITAR):
+  <nowiki>ERROR: MIDI Compiler:
- Gem at 1:1:210 is only 0.23 seconds into the song;
+c:/documents and settings/rbn/desktop/rbn/artist/artistsong.mid (PART GUITAR):
- gems cannot appear before 2.50 seconds into the song
+Gem at 1:1:210 is only 0.23 seconds into the song;
 There are two similar notices. The error above happens if you have notes within the first 2.5 seconds, and will break your compile- Rock Band can't have notes that early in a track.
 The second is only a warning, and it happens if you have notes between 2.5 and 3.5 seconds. These are legal positions, but Audition mode has a bug that causes them to not appear the first time you test a song. If you load, then restart playing a song, it works. This doesn't affect "real" play, so it isn't a full error, though it's generally a good idea to slide everything up a measure to resolve it. (Just be careful of your MIDI events.)
 == MIDI Export Fail ==
 If your MIDI file has any errors, Magma will give you the "export cancelled or failed" error message and it won't export the basic lighting/camera data. The way to check the MIDI file is by attempting a build and use the error log to correct whatever you need to.

 Error: During phase 3, Magma complains that dry vox does not match vocal notes.

 One of the things Magma does during Phase 3 is run a comparison between the dryvox audio of the vocal track and the MIDI notes that you put in for vocal notes. If the original singer was perfect, the audio and MIDI notes would always line up absolutely. But in the real world people wander off pitch, intentionally or not.
-( Note: We use the same algorithm during phase 3 that we do in the game, when we are comparing your lovely singing voice coming through the mic with the note tube that the author of the song created. )
+:Note: We use the same algorithm during phase 3 that we do in the game, when we are comparing your lovely singing voice coming through the mic with the note tube that the author of the song created.
 During this Phase 3 comparison pass, when the sung note is a different pitch from the MIDI, we loosen up the scoring so that people playing the game aren't penalized for singing what they hear. However, if the vocal notes that are sung are consistently very different from the MIDI notes, you will get this error.
