I bought this cable from ebay to connect my Yamaha PSR E213 to my PC, however midi data isn't being sent to or from the keyboard. When I try to send midi data to the keyboard the activity light on the cable flashes but the keyboard doesn't receive anything and when I to to send data to the PC nothing happens. The activity light doesn't flash at all. I have installed the drivers. I think the cable might be defective. Can anyone help? Thanks.
I've got a similar cable - there should be a midi in and midi out light that flashes when data is transmitting. Firsth thing - make sure the plugs are in the right places (in/out). What are you using on the PC to test the connection? The Y-man
Hej, hej boxerfangg, did you connect the midi cabels in the right way? Y-man has mentioned this already. Here in detail: Midicable-OUT has to go in keyboards Midi-IN Midicable-IN has to go to keyboards Midi-OUT Torbjörn
