Hi all.

Stand alone M3 editor works fine on my PC.

Midi works fine in Cubase.

Have the M3 VST plugin installed and get it displayed properly from within cubase. But when I start it, it says it cant find my M3.

Before I spend ages trying to work out where the problem lies, reading the editor manual, it seems to imply I must have Firewire to use the VST part?

Is that correct, if so, that's why I cant get it working as I only have the USB Midi, hence wont bother to solve a problem thats insolvable

Thanks

Joe

No you don't need firewire, you just need the latest M3 midi driver installed (d/l from the Korg website). If you already have this it sounds like its a cubase configuration problem. Did you see this thread http://www.karma-lab.com/forum/showthread.php?t=13679

With USB connection from your M3, you can send/receive MIDI to your computer. You will only need the EXB-FW if you want to additionally get digital I/O channels of audio as well as MIDI from the M3 to your computer. Also, your computer must have a Firewire port in order to use the EXB-FW.

Many thanks

Will take a look at that thread on the Karma forums now.

That helped me pinpoint one problem, I had two drivers installed for the m3, one corrupted, that's now fixed.

Problems still there, but its something I've done wrong within Cubase, will study the manuals.

thanks
