You won't see an entry for the Sound Canvas. Just for the MIDI port it's connected to. This is what you need to select. What is connected to the audio outputs of your Sound Canvas?

It would have to be midi out from the SB Live to midi in on your soundcanvas. As long as you've got that right it should work I think........LL

Ha Ha Ha Ha I know I'm a dum blonde but I hope not that dum. Yes I have taken the lead that came with my SB Live and connected it to the joystick/midi connector. At the end of this lead I have two leads marked as midi out and midi in. I have taken the Midi OUT from the SB and put it into the midi IN of the Sound Canvas ####################### > It would have to be >midi out from the SB Live to midi in on your soundcanvas. As long as >you've got that right it should work I think........LL Well it does not, hence my post to here I can load up Cubase VST/32 and all works fine with the sound card no problems If I then make a new track and part and put some notes in the part under the OUT I can see "A:SB Live Midi Synth." So in my dum way I thought I had to select the sound Canvas for the output BUT as I say I cannot see any output for the Sound Canvas. So is there any where I should alter/fine the sound Canvas output Regards Mary

BUT that is what I'm saying there is NO midi port ref to the sound canvas I have it on port 330 or I can select 300 ########################## > This is what you need to select. > >What is connected to the audio outputs of your Sound Canvas? I have taken two audio leads from the back of the sound canvas and connect those to a powered speakers. That all works fine as I have connected my Sound Brush to the Sound Canvas and I get midi in and sound out. BUT as I say NOTHING from Cubase at all, not even any Midi in. Is there anyway I can test the sound card to see If it is 1....Getting the midi INPUT 2....If so is it sending it OUT OR have I got it ALL wrong inside Cubase Regards Mary > > CubaseFAQ www.laurencepayne.co.uk/CubaseFAQ.htm > "Possibly the world's least impressive web site": George Perfect

This is the SBLive's built-in synth. You need something like "SBLive MIDI out" or similar

The interface port/name is the only thing that will show up in port connections area, the MIDI module the port is connected to will not show up. Also... VST32 has an aux program to help setup MME MIDI ports, it's in the same directory as VST32. Surprisingly... it's called setupmme.exe It will let you activate/deactivate and rename your MIDI ports. Let me see... you're using Cubase 5.xx right? If you want MIDI to go to the SoundCanvas select the SB UART OUT, or SB Live MIDI OUT as the output for that individual track. You know where that is, right. The Tracks have a listing at top that reads: TRACK CHN OUT The out section of each track channels MIDI to whatever device you have setup on the PC. (use the setupmme.exe prgram to arrange your ports in order. Ap

Yes it was the "SB UART OUT" that did the trick. Many thanks Mary

Like on one gig one of the Tech came to me and said would you hold that bit of wire for me a second After a few min's he came to me and said did you feel anything, I said no I did not. He then said to me did you not feel a pratt standing there holding that wire. See what I mean Lance Regards Mary

Although the "hold this wire" story made me laugh. >Thank you very much, I have it all setup and working now. > >Yes it was the "SB UART OUT" that did the trick. I couldn't temember if the SB drivers included that or not. A UART is the hardware serial chip on the SB card, I always felt these had better timing than the USB MIDI interfaces. >Many thanks welcome- Ap

The guys thought it was hilarious....lucky I'm still here to tell the tale!!...... .....or the night I was doing the sound for a band who were using midi backing tracks...I lept up on stage during the show to sort out a minor problem and tripped over a mains lead thus disconnecting it...It would of course have to be the one powering all the midi stuff...he he he!!............LL
