Taurus 3: Trouble getting USB musical keyboard to work

low_notes · #1 03-11-2013, 11:40 AM

Greetings!

I have a Taurus 3. I'm unable to trigger the synth using a USB musical keyboard. (I am able to use a keyboard nicely via the MIDI port.

I'm using firmware v1.12RC2.
The problem occurs with multiple USB keyboards (powered and unpowered) and multiple USB cables.
MIDI is set to DIN/USB. (Also tried USB only)

Any ideas for root cause?

Thanks!

well ..you are totally in the wrong forum.. but you cannot plug a usb midi keyboard into a usb midi port on a synth... you need to go usb midi keyboard>computer>usb midi synth, and use either a sequencer or something like loopbe

I was wondering if that was the case. Thanks.

must be set to the same channel when plugging in directly.

You posted in the BASS section. A Taurus pedal is not a bass. A Washburn Taurus is a bass
