Thanks Voip. The M-Audio and the Samson have gone back in their boxes for now. I'll just run the X50 as a midi controller through either the iRig of the Rubix for the moment. I'm still a bit confused by the concepts of channels, buses and VST but I'm sure I'll work it all out eventually. I have lots ...

Just to add that it turns out that I don't really even need to use any of the interfaces because it seems I can connect from the X50, as a midi controller, direct through the USB lead. I'm not entirely sure but I suspect I'm not using the X50 driver to achieve this. The one thing I decided in the ...

Hi Voip, I greatly appreciate the help you've given me over the last few days. I've made some breakthroughs over the last 24 hours and I think I'm now in a position where I can start recording, albeit in MixPad rather than Cubase which I still haven't quite conquered. Having acquired a new audio ...

By way of further update, I've purchased a Samson Carbon 49 USB MIDI Controller. At first nothing. Now, somehow, almost miraculously, I do have a piano keyboard sound (with a slight delay), and this works in MixPad (but not Cubase), but am having great difficulty in assigning any other sounds to it ...

By way of update, I downloaded something called Midi-Ox this morning and going into the MIDI options tab and just clicking a couple of options I finally managed to get some sound out of the X50 through the computer! I even managed to record some keyboards on MixPad. But for some reason MixPad now ...

Hi, Nothing seems to make any sense to me at the moment. I have emailed Steinberg and received some information back and checked the manual and some online videos and one of the main problems I was having in Cubase has been resolved by the interface in that my inputs and outputs are now all active ...

That's an interesting question. I haven't installed anything myself but when I look on the Cubase MIDI port setup it says: Device: Windows MIDI, I/O: Out, Port System Name: Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth and State: Inactive I don't know where this Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth lives on my computer but ...

Hi, Thanks for sticking with this. I can assure you that the only connection between the Korg X50 and my computer, when it was playing, was through a single MIDI cable. What is strange, though, is that I initially downloaded the X50 Editor thinking it was the USB-MIDI driver. That was when it worked ...

Hi voip, thanks for replying I really appreciate it. To answer your questions, the speakers are mains powered. I can still hear the X50 sounds through the headphones, and through the same speakers I'm using on the computer, when connected directly to the X50. The real mystery for me is that I did ...

Loss of sound on computer

Hi, I've had my X50 for a number of years and always played it directly through speakers or headphones. Last week I was thinking about doing some home recording and wondered if the X50 would play through my computer (an Advent desktop with Windows 10 and Realtek Audio). I bought a midi lead to ...
