Hello,
I recently discovered GarageBand on my iMac and would like to connect my Roland HP 530e keyboard in order to record partitions & play sounds from GB on my keyboard. I got my hands on a ESI MIDI Mate cable and connected it. GB indicates that a MIDI device is connected, the Audio MIDI setup correctly shows the ESI MIDI Mate but nothing works. I can't get any information from the keyboard in GB and sounds won't play. I'm sure I got something totally wrong, thats why I'm asking for your help. Thank you in advance for any useful tips. Regards, BlackNote |

Hi BlackNote,
You can download a little tool Midi Monitor from http://www.snoize.com/MIDIMonitor what will show the incoming Midi. If you play your piano Mindi Monitor should show you the notes. if not you do not receive the midi data. ps. Have you check the switch onthe back of your piano? It should be set on Midi and NOT on Mac. Succes |
