  RE: [Closed] record midi
  Hi Jackie, If Samplitude recognised it then it appears to be installed correctly. Are you trying to record to an audio track or have you set Samplitude to record MIDI? If you're trying to record to a regular track then it won't work. Let me

  RE: VST Plug-ins not showing up?
  Hi, A few things here - I would NOT add .vst to the Vintage folder, keep them separated so you can move, modify or delete the .vst that you add. Simply create a folder called plug-ins or something and place all your DLLs there. Second, simply

  RE: Midistart Keyboard reaction problem
  Hi, The problem is that you do need drivers - ProTools (which is what I use) does not care if it's USB or standard 5-pin MIDI. Hua Xing is really what your keyboard is (it's the chipset) and you need the driver for it. A quick search on

  RE: Two questions
  1.  No it's not a true DAW so MIDI controllers will not work - only MIDI instruments. 2. Your M-Audio will not work as a MIDI controller because you can't use them with Music Maker. You can however use your M-Audio as a standard MIDI keyboard but
