The Reason 2.5 appears to be running smoothly except that it will not react to my keyboard through midi. My mac G4 OS 10.3.9 is receiving the signal though, according to the "test Midi", where I can hear the keyboard's test sound in the mac. Using a midisport 2x2. Please wisdom needed, I've been searching for weeks! Thanks.

Have you tried to reinstall the driver if there's one? Have you redone the audio midi set up from scratch? repair permissions?
Does it work with some other app? -------------------- Our Classifeds • Nos petites annonces • Terms Of Service / Conditions d'Utilisation • Forum Rules / Règles des Forums • MacMusic.Org & SETI@Home

You have to open the Preferences panel to set it up.

Thanks for the replies! I have downloaded and reinstalled drivers a few times from the M-Audio site, and any drivers for Reason should have been installed on initial installation as far as I know. I have also worked with the Preferences in Reason until I'm numb, trying every combination I can think of. I have not tried the midi in any other application, though. I'll try to find one that I can try. What are Repair Permissions, and how do I find them, in case they are responsible? Thanks.

Repair permissions are in the "disc utility" (applications/utilities/disc utility...or something like that) the "repair permissions" will be at the bottom of the window. I am surprised that you would have ANY problems at all with midi setup with Reason & the 2x2 - try also to go to m-audio's website & download the MOST recent drivers that match your OS. If nothing else, think real seriously about getting a newer version of midi sport USB/midi cables (they are only about 50 bucks) as I am not sure if you would even need to install drivers for them.....I just helped my daughter with her mac and an m-audio Oxygen 8 v2 & she didn't even need drivers for Garage Band or Ableton Live Lite to recognize it (she has 10.4.3 on her mac mini).

Thanks for the advice, I'll have to try some of these things. If anyone knows someone who has had this problem, I would love to hear how they resolved this. It is no longer simply a problem, but a quest.

I know it sounds stupid, but... did You care to set up in right order? First, switch on midi keyboard, then Reason. If You do that contrary, Reason will not react on keyboard. And then You should to switch midi on in Reason preferences.
I hope You will cope wih cheers |

Oh....yeah. It's been so long since THAT has happened to me, I forgot to even mention that in my last post. You definitely have to have the keyboard powered up & running BEFORE starting up Reason. I just got in the habit of leaving my keyboard hooked up to my laptop in what is now a stationary place & never had that problem again.

I gave up, I'm ordering the MAudio Oxygen 49 key keyboard/controller, which I assume I will be able to make work. Comes with Ableton Live Lite. I'm fairly excited here!
