Apple Logic Pro /LogicExpress Discussion

A couple things.

Pays to do things step by step.
(The Moti and the Keyboard my be communicating but not actually  
sending through to Logic.

Does the Motu show up in the Apple OS X Midi/Audio interfaces screen?
Does the Keyboard also show up there?

In the Below example  it shows an one device, an Axiom Pro 49  
keyboard, but you should see 2 a keyboard and a Motu or something  
device.




If either are missing then you will likely not get sound/life to  
Logic  as Apples OS is not able to see them so neither will Logic etc.
Do you see two devices?
