Lost controllers/instruments

Post by clavguy »

Hi gang....
Long time no chat..
So.. Here is my problem. I fire up Mixcraft 9 Pro. I tell it that I want a to put a Pianissimo Acoustic Grand in one of my instrument tracks. So far so good. But when I go to play any my keyboards, only my Arturia MiniLab keyboard produces any sound. My Yamaha Moxf8 keyboard, my M-Audio Keystation 61 nor my Focusrite USB interface produce nothing for sound. It does not matter what I set as default MIDI in device in <File> <Preferences...> MIDI, I always get sound from the Arturia MiniLab keyboard but no sound from everyone else. Though all keyboards, including the "silent ones" always show show "MIDI In" activity with the blinking red "led" at the bottom of the screen whenever I hit a key on those other keyboards. So I don't think it's a problem with the plugin. All the devices that I just mentioned have an "active" check mark next to them in the preference pull down.
I should mention here that Cubase does "see" and play sounds with all keyboards.

Any ideas????
Thanks Pierre

Hi,
Check that you have your MIDI channel set to.match the virtual piano. See what the setting is on the keyboard that gives you sound. I have done this myself, when I rush my setting up.
