 Re: Problems using external computer as MIDI synth
Hi my name is Pete, I have recently rekindled my interest in acquiring a functional home recording studio and am stuck from the off with setting up my kit. The trouble is that I cannot get my Midi Keyboard Controller (Roland PC-200) to sound through my sound card (SW1000XG). I have an option of using either Cubase VST5 or SX as my main sequencer, but neither allows my keyboard to sound through the card.
Both sequencers will open or import Midi Files and play them back through the card, is the problem just a matter of midi setup ?
I have some concerns with the card, ie can a card of this age function correctly with my PC setup which is a Pentium4 - 2.8G running XP? I did manage to find drivers for both the card and XG works (XG works refused to open prior to the driver update).
Is there a solution ? am I wasting my time with this card ? and if there is a solution which of the two cubase would you recommend I use.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Pete
