I want to do something I thought would be very simple. Transfer recorded songs from our CLP-970A Yamaha Clavinova to our G5 iMac with garageband via the Yamaha MIDI interface UX16.

I installed the driver and it shows up on the system preferences and the utilities folder under applications and MIDI devices. So the device is recognized by the computer.

The UX16 unit lights up, which according to the manual means information is being transmitted in either direction so there is a "hot" connection.

The Clavinova is not new, at least 5 years old and has the "XG" label on it. Is this the problem? Is the XG system obsolete or is it compatible with the UX16 device?

I would just like directions, in very simple terms as to how to transfer music the is played or recorded on the clavinova to my mac via garageband so I can burn CD's rather than using the direct audio jack to make cassette recordings.

I would appreciate any help anyone has to offer.
Thanks a bunch! blink.gif

hi loyal.


the XG stands for 'extended midi' ,and it has nothing to do with your problem.the XG sistem ,basically gives you more power over the programmability of the module ,like fx(reverb,chorus,variation multi fx) and a wide range of sounds to choose from.
now, to the main topic:did you set up the midi configuration??
if not,go into Applications>Utilities>Audio Midi Setup.open the app ,and choose midi devices ,there you'll see the UX's icon,now hit
'add new device' ,fill up the info of the Clavinova ,then do the connections accordingly (MIDI:IN>OUT,OUT>IN),and you should be set.
good luck!
