MIDI Keyboard>Protools>Redrum-Need Help

[JCWarrior]

I've tried every configuration I can think of and I can't get from my midi keyboard to protools to redrum and out of the speakers or onto a track.

I would be eternaly greatful if someone could list each step to get this basic function working for me. I can get it to work as a standalone to Reason but not thru PT.

I'll list my last config below. Keep in mind I tried probably 10 different ways.

1)Midi Keyboard to USB on laptop.
2)Midi Track w/Input to "All" and Output to "Redrum-10"
3)Aux Track with Reason as plug-in.
4)Rewire set to Output "Channel 10", Input "Bus 1", Output "Bus 3-4"
5)Audio Track INput set to "Bus 3", Output set to "Analog 1-2".
6)Redrum "Stereo Out L/R" to channel 1 of "Mixer".
7)Mixer "Aux 1 Left (Mono) out to channel 1 of "Hardware Interface.

When I arm my midi track to record and hit my keyboard the level meter jumps. I get no sound or any activity otherwise.

Please only answer this if you know the answer for certain. I appreciate anyone trying to help but to keep trying to "guess" at it has allready wasted hours.

Thank you.

you need to go down an octave or 2 on your keyboard.I just did this after reading your poat and couldnt get it to work.Had to pull out the manual.Redrum is assigned to the low c on a keyboard.
Its an octave below dr rex I believe.Happy thanksgiving!

When I did this I now see the drums being activated in redrum and on the mixer level, however, I still can't get it to route back into PT's and no sound.

We're getting there.

Have you had a look at your Reason Preferences? Edit>Preferences>MIDI and check to see that MIDI Clock Sync has No MIDI Input selected and the same for Remote Control.


Hope this helps.

"4)Rewire set to Output "Channel 10", Input "Bus 1", Output "Bus 3-4""

Rewire set to Mix L- Mix R

As far as I can see because I do know the answer, you don't need any of the rest, really.

Do remember to arm the midi track.

BTW: It'll be alright.
