Why Can't I Hear My Dx7 On My Sequencers?, DX7: MIDI and Audio SETUP for Sequencers Options

Hello,

I've got the following equipments:
- an imac with Pro Tools Free and Logic AUdio running under OS 9.2.2,
-a Yamaha DX7,
- a Midisport UNO 1*1 Midi Interface
- OMS 2.3.8

The Midi IN/OUT are OK but the issue is that I can't hear the DX7 on the Mac eventhought I connected its audio output to the audio input of the Mac?

The audio output of the DX7 works perfectly when I connect it to my stereo so the problem must be related to the configuration of the sequencers (which is not so well explained in the manuals...).

Thank in advance for your help!

Bye,

John

I'm running OMS 2.3.8 but I've read somewhere that it's better to still use OMS 2.3.7 (?).
When I'm testing the OMS setup the midi in/out are OK ("Midi received!", the DX7 sounds when I play the virtual eyboard).

>Once you have all the above configured, and the MIDI track playing your DX-7 like a piano-roll, then you can route the audio of your DX-7 to the input of any audio track, set it to record, and get a recorded audio version of what the DX-7 is playing.


Do you virtually route the DX7 audio to the audio track on OMS or do you mean that I just have to create an audio track on which I can record the DX7 audio?


> Once it's an audio track, you can turn off the playback of the MIDI track, and add effects and whatever to the audio version.
At any time, if you want to change something, you can just edit the MIDI track and re-record it.


Could you please tell me how to turn off the playback of the Midi track?
So if I add effects on the audio track, can they be directly affected to the midi track too (and vice-versa)?
When you are satisfied with the results, which track do you usually keep, midi or audio?
