In my own little world
Okay... I am trying to get my SB Live! Working with my CS1x & Cubase VST/32.

I've got the LiveDriveII (Non-IR, has the standard sized DIN prots for MIDI, ot the small ones), and also a Gameport-->MIDI In+Out cable

Will either work? Will they **** as like...

Anyone got any pointers?

I've been through what I can see, and set everything to use the Gameport (I have a suspicion about the Cables from the LiveDriveII So I am replacing those tomorrow)

Please help, before I chuck the lot from my 3rd floor window...:mad:
 
I have live and it works fine with Cubase -

Dont use game port midi - stick with livedrive.... unistall and reinstall drivers.

Make sure you got right midi in and outs selected in Cubase - check if you got correct asio drivers installed too.
 
Uninstalled a few times now...

What ASIO drivers should I be using.. think I'm on the DirectX ones.

where do I check the Ports are enabled, Been through what I can see, and set them to SB MIDI Port.

Replaced all of the cables, including the Gameport one (Will do for a backup if I get this lot going)
 
UART1 is the JOYSTICK PORT
UART2 is the Midi Port on't Frunt
There may be more?

Some Keyboards output the Midi data to a particular channel.

Your Software may be trying to onl;y reconrd on one channel.

Maybe perhaps they are not the same?

Keyboard sending out data for channel 2 and you are recording channel 1 perhaps?

Just a thought?

So, make sure that the Keyboard is sending ALL its MidiData and not just the data for one channel.

Alternatively, ditch the PC altogether and get yourself a good old Atari ST and forget about any problems like this.
