I just bought a WK-7600 to try to get back into piano and organ after about 30 years away. (My wife frowned at even that price tag, but it'll do for a start.) I am very PC and USB literate, but have never messed with MIDI. I followed the first time connection instructions in the manual, and the PC installed the CASIO USB-MIDI driver (after taking quite a while to find it in the MS Driver database). EMedia has a device setup at the start, which detected the CASIO MIDI device, but no matter what I did, when I hit a note on the keyboard, the green light saying that it detected the note wouldn't light up. I went through all the usual PC USB driver debugging, even trying multiple cables. I got the light to blink a couple times once, but it still wouldn't work for the lesson, and when I went back to setup, it wouldn't blink anymore. I downloaded the Casio Data Manager, and it links to the keyboard and shows the current settings, so that made me think that the USB port on the keyboard is OK, at least data-wise. Finally, after reading about it here, I downloaded MIDI-OX and ran it. Unless I am missing something there, too, when I set up the CASIO MIDI device as input, I saw no MIDI traffic logged, and saw nothing blinking any of the MIDI ports, even when I changed the MIDI options to turn AccompOut on, or changed the keyboard port to something other than 01. I'm just using the power-on setup on the keyboard, including the default stereo grand piano, although I've tried different instruments, layer, split, etc., to see if any setting would send something, but no luck so far. Is there something else that I need to do to output MIDI, or am I missing something on the PC side? Thanks Ron
