and don't do this with ALL as your MIDI channel. When you can press a key on the synth and the Electric Piano (or whatever) plays in Logic, then you know the first MIDI signal chain (keyboard OUT -> interface IN -> Mac) is working all the way to LPX, and you know how to select the controller and the right MIDI channel. Step three: try to get your keyboard working as a controller for a Logic Software Instrument. You know at this point the Mac is getting your MIDI controller's signals - that's good! Go to step 3. Once you see MIDI events showing up in MIDI Monitor on your Mac, THEN Logic is your next task. You can probably engage tech support or a support forum for your MIDI interface they'll know the troubleshooting steps for your hardware. Step two: ensure the interface is sending MIDI to your Mac. No point proceeding if the keyboard isn't doing that. Make sure you're sending MIDI events from the keyboard. If you have any MIDI sound modules, hook one up to it. Step one: make sure your keyboard is set to produce MIDI, and Local Control is off. Literally start at the beginning of the signal chain. To debug this, let's take Vizzini's advice and begin at the beginning. Then see if it replays right when you replay the track. Then if you're using the D1's onboard sounds, see if you get the D1 audio into LPX. Then see if you can trigger an LPX software synth using the D1's keyboard. Do that by using the typing keyboard within LPX to ensure sounds come out of the Focusrite. First make sure you're getting the audio from LPX to your speakers. Suggestion: debug this one step at a time. You'll also need to turn off local control inside the D1 (otherwise the D1's sound module will be triggered by the keyboard, and again by the MIDI of the same note coming back from the Logic through the interface). D1 MIDI Out to interface MIDI In, then add interface MIDI Out to D1 MIDI In, and also D1 audio out to interface audio in. If you DO want to use the D1's onboard sounds, you need to make more connections. If you DO NOT want to do that, you really only need to connect your MIDI Out to the interface's MIDI In. Ken you have to decide, too, if you intend to use the onboard sounds of the D1 into LPX.
