Hello!

I one day accidentally found a keyboard in Logic Express by pressing buttons.. With that keyboard I could play instruments with my laptop keyboard. Then next time I started the program it was gone! Now I have searched through all the menus and options to find it again, but without results..

Can somebody tell me how to find it again? smile.gif

Thank you very much in advance

The keycap keyboard, hit your caps lock to activate.

Windows>Keyboard, gives you a window view of an actual keyboard. Did you mean using your computer keyboard to play/input notes?

I ment that I wanted to play notes with my keyboard and not be forced to click every single note with the mouse.

BUT, now I am facing a new problem.. How can I record the notes I play with the keyboard to the instrument track while letting the music play in the background? I succeeded to record notes without the music at every 1/8 note, but I would like to "jam" with the music and get the notes recorded. HOW can I do this?

Very thankful for help!

Buy a MIDI keyboard. They're not expensive. A quick 'search' on the Web should produce lots of possibilities!

Logic has method of using your computer keyboard for input, for those times when your'e sitting in an airport and inspiration hits.

It's also available in Garage Band2.

Thank you for replies!

I am buying a MIDI-keyboard later but for now I am happy with the laptop keyboard..

But I was wondering how I can record what I play to the arrange? How can I play keyboard while the music is playing and then get the keys recorded? Haven't found out yet..

Arm the track by pressing the rec. button if it has one, and engage record on the transport.

biggrin.gif Hay no DJ for me. I just want to lay down some drum patterns and synth tracks and add vocals sometimes.
