Title: Yamaha PSR-260 No MIDI Output Using Joystick con
Post by CyberDad on Feb 5th, 2004, 11:59pm
:-[ I have spent several hours trying to configure my Yamaha PSR-260 to work with my sequencer (Cakewalk Music Creator 2003). I have verified the connections are correct and hear notes played using the virutal keyboard or computer keyboard on the PSR-260.  I am not getting any MIDI output from the keyboard and therefore cannot capture the music with my sequencer. My computer recognizes my Yamaha PSR-260 as an MPU-401 Compatible MIDI device and this shows up in Cakewalk as well as MIDI-OX.

Can anyone give me some useful advice (short of radical brain surgery  :o ) Thanks.

Well, what do you know.  I am having the same problem with "Cakewalk", "Fruity Loops 3", and even the old Windows 3.1 based "Midisoft"  I am begenning to wonder if it is the built in game port.  I also have a Casio cz-101 that worked like a charm -- but on a different system however it died.  So, I bought a Yamaha PSR-260.  Why the midi ports if it they don't work?  There has to be somthing with the built in sound card.  Tell me what you think.  
 
ZNOP!  
 
P.S.  But, then again I wasn't running Windows 2000 when it did work...  I was running Windows ME!  I must try that tonight.  


Good luck tell me if you get it to work.

Hey Good News I got Cakewalk to work with Windows 98.  I realize this post is old but I hope it reaches you.
