Hi everyone-I'm a first time poster here, but hopefully I'll use this forum a lot. I'm also brand new to MIDI, having just bought an oxygen 8 keyboard, (which connects via USB) and installed oms and the keystation software that came with it. I can't hear the notes I record in protools, or any other audio software I use it in. It shows input from the keyboard, so I know it's communicating with the computer, but no sound.
OS 9.2.2. Help? |

Thanks for all the input.
FYI I'm on a beige 266 G3 running 9.2.2 I installed OMS according to the manual that came with the unit. Then I installed KeyStation which supposedly (according to the manual) put two keystation extensions in my extensions folder (which it didn't). Then I ran OMS, it searched for the keyboard and found a keystation connection, but according to the manual it should have found oxygen 8, but what I got was an icon with a keyboard that had a question mark over it. Test midi, however, gave me "midi recieved" in a pleasant female voice, so I figured I was in business. Then I ran protools free, inserted a midi track, and when I played on the keyboard I could see the green sound bar jumping up and down, but no sound was coming out of the speakers. I'm getting a clearer idea from all your help as to why this was happening. Last night I ran Reason again and got some feedback, but I think it's going to take a ton of fiddling around before I'm really comfortable with it. |
