How to rec the sounds made with synthstation 49 in live

[BrunoAnthony]

I would like to record my work made on the synthstation 49 with ipad into a midi channel on ableton. i got the synth linked into my mackie onyx and that linked to my iMac. But the midi channel i load the sounds in on ableton shows a meter but says midi to ; No Output and cant select Master in the list. i got it to work once by accident , and then started a new file and it didnt work any more. Please does anyone know what im doing wrong.



thnx a billion

Well...did you arm the track ?

[BrunoAnthony]

yes off course

and the thing is it records my work into the midi channel but when i want to play it back it doesnt send it to the master because it says no output. and i cant select the master outpu in the list that is normally there. For instance when i load i normal instrument from the ableton rack.

You want to record MIDI coming from your synthstation 49, right ?

First of all, is it enabled as a midi track input in the prefs ?
Then all you have to do is create a midi track, select your synth49 as input source, arm the track, and record wether in arrangement or in clips.

I assume by 'channel' you mean 'track'. Well, you're recording midi, not audio. You need to load an instrument in the track if you want to produce sound.

i sthere a way i can send you some photos of my screen so that you know what i mean ???

[BrunoAnthony]

because it records my stuff itno midi and i can play it back and you see the meter of the midi track responding but where it says midi to ( and normally it says beneath it MASTER ) now says beneath it no output and if you click that i cant select master .

and if i record it into an audio track , it records and i can play it back to my master. but then i have a wave form and no midi. And it worked on midi once 2 days ago but i dont know what i did to get it that way.

Read the part about the "External Instrument"-Device in the manual.

I had to look it up as well: SynthStation49 Keyboard Controller for iPad - plays audio, too.
