Re: [DTXpress] Has anyone gotten the pc/midi working?

2003-01-08 by Jari Penttinen

Hi, i don't think Cool Edit Pro can record midi data, i guess it's for audio
recording only, even that Syntrillium homepage claims that  it can playback
midi files.

What you need is some sequencer that can record midi data, cakewalk, cubase,
logic or similar, i havent yet tested midi recording with DTXpress myself so
this is just theory but basicly you just hook things together with midi
cables, set DTXpress to send mididata (don't know how...) and set sequencer
to record, that should do it.

I have played with midi gears many years and so far it's been really easy to
get working, only thing is that if DTX doesn't send midi data by default you
need to set it to do so, i just got my DTXpress set few days ago so i havent
have time to investigate all possibilities yet,  i'll try this tonight and
post more info tomorrow, if needed.

Jari
