can softsynths 'talk' with DP3?, software/hardware Options

[lightbluelotus]

Hi'

I have a an Oxygen 8 controller that I'm trying to use with my g4 733/DP3/softsynths(Absynth/unity ds-1)

My problem is that I cant seem to record anything midi, onto my digital performer sequencer; is this possible? It has to be, but no matter what literature I find; I cant seem to make any of my soft synths 'talk' with digital Performer.

Any help would be much appreciated!
