i just bought a x station it sounds really good when i plug my speakers into the back of it...
but...
for some reason the synth wont play through logic...
the midi keyboard works..
but the synth doesnt...
ive downloaded all the new drivers and updates...
ive read the manual through... i just cant find the problem..
(knowing me its probably somethin REALLY simple that im missing lol )
im using logic 8 & a firebox presonus external sound card..
please help... as i really wanna get this synth into a song...
thanks.. |

Did you remember to turn up the volume on the synth?
Have you added the synth in the environment?
Are you sending MIDI data? |

| The synthesizer is fully integrated that means you have to open a new software instrument and click AU instruments and look for the novation plug in. If its not there go to the novation website and see if its compatible with logic. |

there aren't any, as far as i know, but there are several synths that have a librarian plug-in which works in a similar fashion

i don't know about that, but when i use my korg i have to add it in the environment so it can receive MIDI
window - environment - (upper left corner) MIDI instruments - new - instrument
then a little instrument pops up, and i assign it to the MIDI-ports on the korg
THEN, i can add an "external instrument" plug-in on an instrument track, and choose the korg |
