I just recently bought Intuem, a basic, inexpensive sequencing program for OSX. It's my first ever sequencer, and it's been great....that is, for midi sounds. I own a Roland Xp-30 keyboard. I want to know how I can record the 1000 plus sounds from my xp30 BESIDES gm ( general midi )
When I switch to the xp30 from " quicktime musical instruments ", it's says " UNDEFINED " I don't know what to put in for a new sound bank and record other sounds. When I am in xp30 and record, the notes show up as I play them, yet there is no sound while I play and on the playback. I tried emailing Intuem support, but what they told me doesn't seem to work. someone please help! - jeffro
This isn't going to help you at all, but I had exactly the same problem.
I liked the look and approach of Intuem and it worked fine - but on its own terms. I couldn't get my external module sounds to register and playback and I e-mailed Intuem support, but their reply wasn't much help to me either.
It seemed to involve a lot of tweaking with the Inspector and Preferences windows, clearing the connections and Midi set-up drop-down boxes and then restarting Intuem.
All I can suggest is continually e-mailing Intuem support and make them pay more attention. They asked me to mail them screenshots of the menu options where I was having trouble, so try that.
Thanks for the info. they asked me also to send a screen shot. how do you send one??( a screenshot )
p.s.did you figure it out? what are you using and how was it set up?
I have a midiman MIDISPORT 2 X 2, with one midi cord going from MIDI out on my keyboard to IN-A on the midisport, and one usb cable from the midisport to my g4 iMAC.
I would love ANY help. this problem is driving me nuts!!

For screenshot press "Command, Shift and 3" together.
"one midi cord going from MIDI out on my keyboard to IN-A on the midisport"
Have you also got a MIDI cable going from the MIDI out of the MIDISPORT to the In of your XP30 keyboard?

Thanks for the tip formatj
do you know much about Intuem? I am having the hardest time trying to get sound from my Roland xp30 to Intuem. I've been talking back and forth with Intuem support for about a month now.
Yes , I DO have two Midi cables plugged in. I'm using a Midisport 2 X 2
I don't really know how to define my xp30 sounds. When I press record and have everything set up in Intuem AND my xp30 ( local parameter OFF ), the notes show up, but no sound.
Sound only comes out when I use the crappy GM quicktime musical intruments sounds. I am fed up with it!!!
do you know if my xp30 need to be set on a different mode? all I know is that once the put the local parameter OFF, no sound comes out of my keyboard when I play it. And of course, when it is ON, I can play the keyboard, but again no sound comes out when I try to record.
I just sent then my preferences file a few days ago, and have heard no responce yet? any advice AT ALL?? It's real frustrating.
I have a few songs on mp3.com, but I made them with GM sounds, and I could do a heck of a lot better with my 1000-plus sounds in my xp30.
If you do not have any advice, can you prescribe another program like it?
What's a good program to learn sequencing on? I'm thinking of jumping staright to Logic 5 for OSX, but I'll have alot to learn.
I need to learn how to sequence and edit so I can do a film score in 6 months. I feel that I have the talent, yet my fundementals are lagging.
I just starting take music classes at junior college, but besides theory, they won't help much.
WOW! I WROTE TOO MUCH!
all help is greatly appreciated. - jeff leiser
