Midi Drivers Missing Under Oms., ol' OMS/midiman-Maudio prob as usual Options

[KB Boy]

I have Logic 4.8 on a G4 Powerbook, 400 MHz, 386 MB ram. I am using a Midisport 1X1 USB hub connecting a Roland JV - 50 to the computer. I went to use the set up for the first time in a few months and I can't get midi out ie I can't hear anything. Logic shows a midi in signal and I can record it but can't hear it. I went back to OMS studio set up. The arrow showing line out from the icon for the synth is blinking which I assume means no connection. When I check the set up in the OMS window I keep getting the message "Midisport1 OMS Driver cannot be loaded". I checked and the driver is in the OMS folder in the System Folder. I've reinstalled the Midisport 1X1 driver from the disk once but it didn't help.

It was working last time I used the computer so I think I've maybe changed a setting or preference . . . or something.
Any suggestions?

typical OMSthing behaviour… and rather common with Midiman/Maudio drivers… they just semm to love each other for years

Trash OMS and the midiman drivers and preferences
Do some clean up while you're at it
feed the cat
install OMS again
Install midiman drivers again

It should accept to be set up in order now. If not, start again, change the order, but don't feed the cat again or he'll get heart dissease.

Usually it works the first time (loads and loads of threads on this back in time…) but some unlucky ones have had to struggle a bit.

Thanks, I'll give it a try.

OK!

How would we spend our musical time without computers, uugghh?


Glad to read that the re-install worked.

I'm having probs running OMS with a keystation 61es - everytime I switch the USB Midi keyboard on, a dialog comes up saying the drivers for the keystation aren't there and would I like to get them from the internet! Despite everything the keyboard simply doesn't register in the OMS set-up panel. And why doesn't it show a USB port for hich this keyboard is designed??? The keyboard works in OS X but I use )S 9 a lot 'cos I have many apps using it.
I'm hoping MAudio will come up with an answer....

Try to restart the computer (in fact, shut down, wait a little, start up the keyboard then the mac) with the keyboard already on.

If it doesn't work, try the reinstall trick. (and retry if it doesn't work).

I won't expect a workaround from M-audio for an eventual bad behaviour in OS 9. For development, OS 9 is dead now.

Nope - that works not. Thanks though! I see that the Opcode OMS Midi list doesn't even include the keystation by M-Audio! Quite why they issue these useless discs with their new hardware is beyond me. As a music newbie, I was trying to use the midi to call up Quicktime musical instruments the range of which was revealed via a shareware prog - MacSynth . My Reason Adapted software doesn't seem to be able to import Quicktime instruments for some reason ( uh....sorry) . Hey ho, it's off to OS X land......
