I am a new user to recording. I have a midi keyboard connected to my apple computer. When I open logic express and hit the keyboard keys, I can see the software receiving data but I can't hear anything. What am I doing wrong?

Help
Thanks

hi marjohn,

you have to select (highlight) the according track you want to trigger, (if it is an audio instrument, make shure it is selected / loaded into the audio instrument channel as well, under audio channel I/O you can select which software instrument you like to have under that channel... or if you want to trigger hardware, like a rackmount synth say, make shure you select the right midi channel (click hold on the trackname and a box will pop up where you can select between audio instruments, midi, audio tracks and so on...)

hope it helps :D

Logic Express

Hi:

I tried the instructions you gave, but still no sound. I have disconnected everything and only leave the midi keyboard which is connocted via the USB port. When Logic is loaded it has about 10 instruments loaded in different tracks. I select the track, you can see the system receiving data, but still no sound. Garage band does play sound.
