I can’t get the editor to play from the keyboard. I can make it play by clicking the keys on the mouse but not by playing notes on the keyboard. I have Studio Manager V2.3.0 and Editor v1.1.1. Help!!!!!!

i believe you need 2 midi chords.

1.) Out from keyboard controller IN to rack

2.) OUT from rack IN to keyboard controller

and also set midi transmit to USB

i am away from my rig and manuals, otherwise i could give you specifics

You’ll need to give us more info before we can help.

Do you have your keyboard ( controller) connected directly to the Motif XS Rack and the Rack connected to your computer via a USB cable ?

Page 17 in manual see connection #2

* In connection example 2, the received MIDI data from an external keyboard is transmitted through the MOTIF-RACK XS to the connected computer. If MIDI Thru is enabled in the client application, MIDI data is re-transmitted to the MOTIF-RACK XS. For details, refer to the “Using the Thru Port” (page 18).

midi thru setup on your comp is most likely the culprit. Make sure the editor is putting midi thru

Mogut -

Make that 2 midi cords (cables). (not ‘chords’)

Not being pedantic but I tried Cmaj7 and D9 together before I realised what you were saying!

MoGut - No problem - I look forward to seeing the attachment when we can post.

btw - That’s a great pic of you. I asked a few people what they reckon you are wearing and the concensus we have reached is as follows: -

Fancy-Dress party (July 4th maybe?) - you are wearing a bald eagle outfit and you have taken off the head in order to sing! :))__

I promise that is meant affectionately.

Honest guv!
