Unhappy No midi input and output on Mbox 2

Hi everybody,

i just bought Mbox 2 Factory and it seems that i've got problems with MIDI connections.

I don't see them in PRO TOOLS 8 and LIVE 8, my keyboard controller does nothing when i touch keys.

Is there someone that might have an idea?

Thanks a lot.

Yes, we need more details.

What controller, specifically, are you using? Do you have any other audio software (besides PT8 and Live) installed? (please include version numbers).

Hi spkguitar,

i use a Roland PC180A keyboard, plugged in Midi in of the Mbox 2.

I'm on a Windows XP system and i used to work with it on Cubase SX3 before, with a MOTU Ultralite soundcard.

Have you done any "tweaking" to your machine? Turned off any startup services?

What, exactly, are you seeing on a MIDI track's input selector?

Default Re: No midi input and output on Mbox 2

I have no "tweaking" on my computer system. And i didn't turn off directly any startup services i think.

On the MIDI track's input i just see ALL, no other way to choose.

Is it normal that i see only default MIDI player as in Windows too?

No, that's not normal. With the MBox 2, you should also see the MBox's MIDI Inputs/Outputs.
