Midisport Or Oms Problems? Options

[louise g]

Here's the problem:

I have a Midiman Midisport 1x1 connected to a G3, and when I play notes nothing seems to be registering on its 'Out'. When I play my controller (Ensoniq VFX), the "In" lights up to say it's receiving, but nothing is getting out and down the cable to my sound module (Roland JV-880).

I've checked all leads etc, and the problem has to be in the interface or the OMS set-up.

I haven't had the interface for very long, and I had it working a couple of times, but all of a sudden it's clammed up - does anyone know what this could be? all advice received very gratefully - I'm very new to all this stuff, and have come to the end of my know-how!

I missed the fact you were using a 1x1 and not a 2x2 Midisport.
If you are only using your keyboard as a controller and not for sounds try resetting up your OMS with the following.

Choose new setup.
let OMS scan for your interface.
choose new device
select manufacturer as other (or Roland if you want)
model: "other"
Name: call this anything you like.

tick the box "is controller".
tick the box is "multitimbral".

Try not having two devices on the one OMS port in the setup and see if this helps. OMS doesn't really need to actually know the brand of keyboard/module you are using, just the number of MIDI channels etc...

What sequencing software will you be using with this?
