Okay, thank you. I will look into both of these. I am new to this. In short, I want to write and edit music using the keyboard talking to the software program and not just create in the software program. I am starting with darkwave because it is free and I need to know what I need to know and want before I purchase anything. I am a lifelong musician and I know I will create better this way. I may use Audacity if I record vocals, but was just using it more as a check as to why I couldn't see the keyboard as an input in either and it's easier to see such issues in audacity. I am a on a learning curve here but when A and B don't connect you're stopped. 🙂 Let's see how this works. Again, thank you! UPDATE: In DarkWave, nothing will show in that top box. I will dig in there for awhile. I did find the player option in Audacity as you said above THANKS!

I have a new (purch 2019) HP Windows 10 Laptop. I downloaded Audacity and also DarkWave. I plugged in my Casio LK-165, and neither software shows it as an input device. I have been working on this issue for HOURS! I looked in Control Panel/Device Manager and it says that the Casio USB Midi working properly (in Properties) yet in Events shows that the device is not migrated. I have been tossed back n forth from Windows to Casio to see where the fail is. I have tried to disable/enable the device, manually unplug/replug/power on, and even downloaded some promised FIXES from unknown sources to the USB MIDI issues which wanted money to do (which I uninstalled). I can't even find a recent post in the Windows Forums about this. I cannot find an updated driver for this keyboard to try to manually re-install it on Casio's end either. I even tried another MIDI keyboard and it had the same no migrated issue (and not read as an input device). AND...I just got an answer on a Microsoft Forum saying that Casio has not supplied updated drivers.... ?????? So disappointing...
