My interface has 2 MIC IN Jacks and Logic reads them as Inputs 1-2...well...Input 1-2 is what I set up for my keyboard when actually the cable was going in analog 1-2 which logic read as input 3-4. When I discovered this it was a big OMG! moment...I just assigned the right outputs to the right tracks and the sweet sound of music (apple loops) where coming through my head phones. Thanks again dude...you help me get there. Tim --- On Thu, 9/10/09, gamoore@... <gamoore@...> wrote: From: gamoore@... <gamoore@...> Subject: Re: [Logic_Cafe] Re: Midi Out? To: ruthsboy1@... Date: Thursday, September 10, 2009, 11:53 AM This is getting to be pretty specific to you so I will take this message privately. Regarding #7 - you can hear the keyboard when you play it with your hands, or when you are playing the sequence? The answers should be NO and YES. If so, then your audio has a problem - your cables from your keyboard to your mixer need to be looked at, and the audio system. If the answers are YES and NO, then yo ur keyboard is not set to MIDI only. Regarding midi cables - yes its rare for them to go bad, but I have experienced bad cables myself. I did not do anything special to them and they were just sitting around my home studio. Try buying another one and putting it from MOTU to Keyboard. By the way, are your midi cables connected properly to the keyboard, from MOTU to the midi-IN on the keyboard, and from keyboard Midi out to MOTU in? I don't have a MOTU interface - I use the Emagic AMT8 which is designed to work with Logic. -----Original Message----- From: ruthsboy1 <ruthsboy1@...> To: Logic_Cafe@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thu, Sep 10, 2009 5:52 am Subject: [Logic_Cafe] Re: Midi Out? Ok Greg...I tried your suggestions and here's exactly what happened: 1. While in Audio-Midi Utility I tested an Icon that represents my Motu 828 mk3. There are two arrows on that Icon that represent the In/Out. When I click on the Out arrow (Left=2 0arrow facing down),the Midi activity indicator on the LCD of my MOTU interface lights up, but there is no sound. When I touch a key on my keyboard the right arrow blinks(arrow facing up) and the LCD lights up again...but I get a tone that sounds like a Mac computer alert(not a tone generated from my keyboard). What does that mean? 2. I tried moving a midi sequence to a softsynth20and it does sound. All internal sounds come through the headphones...it's the external instrument i'm having trouble hearing. 3. There is midi activity going out, as indicated by the monitor on the transport. 4. If by port numbers you mean selecting my interface in the inspector, yes it is properly assigned. 5. I have'nt changed the midi cables yet...but if there is midi activity in/out, is it necessary. 6. Hardware is properly set to receive midi...I quadruple checked it. 7. I put the headphones directly into the keyboard and it does come through...I hear it, so it still works. Thanks, I appreciate all your help. --- In Logic_Cafe@yahoogroups.com, GAmoore@... wrote: > > A few suggestions : > > 1.
