Pro Tools will not record my piano?

[rsmith]

when I go to record something, I make a instrument track, pull up a piano thats already included in protools, then I enable the track, next I press record and play and record, but protools will not pick up any signal from the piano or any of my other instrument plugins, any Ideas?

Hi, hard to tell from your description but sounds like you dont have things routed correctly. Can you post a photo of your mixer with the routings and how you're trying to record?

Do you have the latest drivers installed for your controller?

Have you setup your controller in Setup>Peripherals>Midi Controllers?

Is the instrument channel input set to 'All'?

[rsmith]

Yes I did, Better yet the main problem im having right now is everytime I use a midi instrument or the piano that programmed in Protools, there seems to be crackling sound that plays along with my keyboard, it kinda sounds distorted, any ideas?

If your controller is connected vis USB, try another usb cable.

As Regen said, it would be helpful to post a link to a photo so we can see how you've set it up.
