Dave Smith Instruments SYNTHESIZERS

I have figured out what was wrong. On the x-session there is a "usb-
>midi" option. Once I set that option, everything worked perfectly. 

As for the photon x25, they suggest setting this option from your 
sequesncer software. I don't think the editor has such an option, so 
I may have to use the x-session for editing and the photon keyboard 
to trigger notes.
