Re: [DTXpress] Looking for DTXpress II , MIDI help

2003-02-24 by Vernon Graner

Ok, I have a DTXpressII and I have it setup w/MIDI going to a MIDIMAN 2x2
USB Midi port to my Windows XP machine running SOnar. I have had no
problem getting tracks recorded to SONAR and playing them back through
the DTXpressII module. Not just drums (on channel 10) but General MIDI
sounds on other channels. I have also hooked up my MIDIMAN USB keystation
external MIDI keyboard nad have used it to trigger drum sounds and
general MIDI sounds from the DTXpressII, just as I would expect it to
work. So, as far as I can tell, there isn't any problem with the
DTXPressII working with external MIDI sources.... Is there anything I can
tell you guys or test for you to try and help in all the madness? ;)
