MK and SX

Greetings!

I recently installed the MK and attempted to use it with Cubase SX Ver. 1.0.1. I used the LoopBe1. I followed the MK/SX tutorial and everything appears to be connected correctly. The trouble starts when I open a VST. I tried to play the VB-1 according to the tutorial. I see the level meter indicating that I amm getting signal but there is no sound when the VB-1 is connected. However, if I change what is connected from the VB-1 to the Microsoft Wavetable GS I get sound. I can play the different patches in the MK without a problem. But, when I try to record to a MIDI track it will not work. Please advise. Am I missing a step somewhere? My rig is a basic PC Pentium III notebook with 512K of memory. By the way the MK is a nice piece of work! All the best.

Hi, have you made sure to follow this advice in the tutorial:

Devices|Device Setup|VST Multitrack, uncheck the option Release ASIO driver in background.

Without it, you won't hear sound when a different program (i.e. MK) is active.

Thanks for the prompt response!

Actually that parameter is set correctly.

Hi...

After checking back in the Devices Setup I see that I misread the instruction...Now everything is running! Thanks a million! Quick question. How does one use the Settings>Option to change the Qwerty keyboard. I tried to change them around from the default but it was not what was needed. Wanted to go into the lower octaves to make a deeper bassline. Don't think I am using the option correctly. Would it be better maybe to transpose the notes down to the sought after registers? Thanks! Really digging the MK!

Hi, use the F3 and F4 keys to change the octave of the computer keyboard.
