I have a midi keyboard, and connected it to my computer with a midi cable through the computer's game port. But my computer didn't recognised it.
I am using FL studio. There is nothing displayed in the "Input" section in the midi settings.
What can I do ?
G'day srinivas,
that really isn't enough detail, but...
I suggest you do a search of this site for MIDI and keyboard. There are any number of threads touching on this kind of problem and you may well find a solution.
Some things to think about though:
- Not all sound cards support MIDI via the game port.
- On those cards that do, you still need the correct driver installed
- Is your MIDI to 15pin D cable correctly made (it should have some electronic buffering built in)
- This is the Noteworthy Composer forum... what IS "FL Studio" and have you checked their support services?
Lawrie covered all of the game port issues. As he said, assuming your game port supports MIDI finctions, you need to install the MIDI driver for the game port. With NWC, further details for setting up external MIDI can be found here:
