Choppin Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Hi, Can you provide a little basic information? Which keyboard will you play with your fingers? What is the last device you want to receive all of the midi information? Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Choppin Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Ok, based on your description, your setup seems ok. you would play either the roland or the PX and that would trigger the proteus. In the end, everything gets routed through the proteus and recorded on the mac. Noise problems can come from many sources. My suspicion is if you are powering the Midisport by the midi cables only or by USB, my thought is there isn't enough power going into the box. This can cause noise. If it has an external power source, you would likely get better performance. Also, if there is a USB cable plugged into the box, there may be grounding issues. Three big things cause noise - interference, poor grounding, bad cables. Those are top of the listers. Easy fixes often come in the form of new, quality cables. the others may not be so easy to track down. Check the noise with either the PX or the Roland plugged into the Midisport, but not both. Use 5 pin midi cables whenever possible and not USB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
