Using a MIDI controller in Cubase

[Mortal_Dezire]

Hey guys,

I just got an M-Audio Key Rig that I'm trying to use with my copy of Cubase LE. The program recognizes when I have the board hooked up, but it doesn't do anything. I'm trying to get to work with a few VSTi's that I have, but I'm not getting any drum or synth sounds at all. Any tips or help? MIDI is still new ground to me.

Is it set as the input device in the midi channel?

Yeah set it to the input device on the MIDI channel and it should work fine. I use a nanoPAD and a nanoKEY quite often in Cubase 4 and haven't had any problems yet. Also I think you have to record enable the MIDI track.

Thanks for this tip. I have a Key Rig as well and was going to use it on an upcoming track!
