usb Keyboard motif xs not working with virtual instruments
Hi everyone,
I would love to have some help with my motif xs8. I've tried to plug it with usb to drive virtual instruments such as structure free. It is declared as a HUI peripheral and i have assigned it to the structure port 1-A however it is not receiving any sounds. It is strange because it works immediately with logicpro or garageband. In structure i can click on the virtual keyboard to make sound but not with the yamaha. I can see that it is transmitting some data because when i press a key, the little yellow bar on structure is blinking but no sounds comes up. Could you bring any help ? thanks in advance, have a good day ! |

Have you set it up under the Midi Studio setup page? It needs to be.

Also make sure you have any driver s/w for the Yamaha installed on your computer. |

Re: usb Keyboard motif xs not working with virtual instruments
Thanks a lot for the replys ! I have checked my midi studio but the keyboard doesn't appear. I have downloaded snoize and it shows that the wordclock is shared as well as the key pressed infos. By un-assigning the HUI, i've managed to make sound enter to structure. But it only send the impulse of the signal. It can send impulse but not keeping the note on.
I think the issue is with the midi configuration. However i've tried different settings directly on the xs8 and it didn't work. I'm not shure that i'm on the new firmware so i'll try to update and i'll keep you informed. If you know how i can make the midi editor to detect the motif, i wait your advices ! Thanks a lot :) EDIT : I managed to get into midi configuration correctly (thanks sierra !) and the motif is seen when pluged in. However i still have the same problem in protools.

Re: usb Keyboard motif xs not working with virtual instruments
Sorry it wasn't very clear ^^
it's just keeping the key down that doesn't work. It sends the info "press on" and "release" but the sound isn't hold when i keep the key down so i have "on-cut(nosound)-info release(so nosound)" |

Just thought of something: did you download and install snoize? If you did run the program and hold down any key on your Motif - it should generate a series of note events which will show a variance in velocity in snoize (that's natural because unless you're a robot you can't hold a key down at the same pressure for a long time). If this works then we can rule out the keyboard. |

Re: usb Keyboard motif xs not working with virtual instruments
What app are you in when you experience this? For example ... when I'm in ProTools and using Virtual Instruments in Komplete Ultimate 10 ... I have settings within the apps that I have to set concerning Midi channel selection.
