Logic Express And Midi Output, MIDI output going through keyboard Options

[lacmackay]

Hi everyone,

I've just gotten Logic Express 7. I have a Tascam US-428 and have connected that to the midi ports on my keyboard. I can record the midi but the audio during recording comes out of the keyboard speakers as well as my monitors which are connected to the US-428 via RCA outputs.

Even worse, when i play back what I have recorded, it only comes through the keyboard and no sound comes out the monitors at all.

CAN ANYONE HELP ME?

Ok, first: do you have the keyboard audio outs plugged into the US-428, or just the MIDI outs?

Your setup should look something like this:

Keyboard MIDI Out to US-428 MIDI In
US-428 MIDI Out to Keyboard MIDI In

Keyboard Audio out to US-428 Audio In
US-428 Audio Out to Monitors

Now, in Logic Express 7, you must enable the US-428 as the audio i/o device (done in the Audio Drivers menu....I'm not in front of Logic right now so I can remember the exact place...look in preferences for Audio/Driver Prefs).

I think what you've done is enabled zero-latency monitoring on the US-428. You must ensure that you are mixing the Logic outs with the direct outs of the US-428. Read your US-428 manual to see how this is done. I had the US-122 for a while and it was the same...you have to allow BOTH the direct audio monitoring and computer outs to go through the US-428.

In addition, you must DISABLE the local out on the keyboard to avoid hearing the keyboard speakers as well. Most keyboards can do this. Read your manual for this.

Hope this all helps!
