Note:
If the sound volume is very low, you can decrease the Headroom of
Proteus VX. (Options, Preferences, Headroom/Boost) Keep in mind that
with less headroom, Proteus VX will be more prone to clipping when
multiple channels are played.

Play your MIDI controller
and verify that it plays Proteus VX. If not, make
sure that your MIDI keyboard is set to the same MIDI channel number as
Proteus VX
(probably channel 1)
. You can also change the MIDI channel of
Proteus VX using the channel Inc/Dec keys shown on the previous page.

(Refer to the manual that came with your MIDI
keyboard, or change the controller numbers on Proteus VX, located under Options,
Preferences, Controllers tab.)
