TROUBLE SHOOTING
If anything doesn’t work . . .
please check following points:
Midi connection fault . . .
do you have installed your midi drivers from your soundcard ?
Look at START --> Settings --> Systemcontrol --> Multimedia --> Tab Midi
for installed Drivers. If not, you have to do this first. After that your Keyboard should work
with your computer. Attention: In some programs you have to set the Input-Port, before you
can receive Midi-data. Please check!!
Audio is delayed . . .
This problem is often attached to the midi device, but in reality it is a problem of the sound
card in your computer. Many sound cards have an adjustable latency time, they are used to
work with slow computers, and so audio is not interrupt. At the installing of the sound card,
the latency time is set to maximum value e.g. 512 samples, and this is too much, so your midi-
notes are sounding delayed. Adjust this value to a minimum that is possible for your
computer, and you will hear audio correct. But you can connect your keyboard to a sound
expander too, and you will see that’s no problem of your keyboard.
Midi Device is not recognize . . .
There are some misunderstandings about midi, because the computer does not recognize a
midi device, except it is an USB-device. The midi standard doesn’t support recognizing of
devices. The
Midicontrol 2
is recognized by USB but not by a midi-interface, this is normal!!
Pedal doesn’t work . . .
May be you having the wrong pedal type. There are two types of pedals in the market: One is
a pedal with an open contact, and if pressed it closed, and one is with a closed contact and
opened if pressed. The keyboard needs a pedal with an open contact!
