<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>It's down to documentation and useability and how

reaper and MIDI</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>Hello all,<BR><BR>I'm also a new user of reaper with ReaAccess
and don't understand why <BR>some many blind people still use Sonar. But it's
not my topic.<BR>I bought a Yamaha MX61 for his large and various midi's bank.
However, <BR>I'm not able to use these virtual instrument product by the MX61
in <BR>Reaper. No problem for the keyboard detection in Reaper nor creating a
<BR>midi track and choosing the output source. My problem only occurs for
<BR>playing mx61 sounds.<BR>Is there a slave mode or VST, for heard midi from
my Yamaha MX61?<BR><BR>Thank in advance,<BR><BR>AlexisLe 09/11/2013 18:09,

keyboard to Reaper and getting going:<BR>><BR>> If your midi
keyboard has a USB cable, plug that into your computer.<BR>> If you
want to use midi caples, plug a midi cable from midi out on the <BR>>
keyboard to midi in on your audio/midi interface card, and vice versa,
<BR>> from midi out on your sound card to midi in on your keyboard.<BR>>
Install all drivers that came with your sound card and keyboard.<BR>>
Install Reaper 64 on Windows 7 64, and Reaper 32 on XP.<BR>> Open and close
Reaper once, then Install ReaAccess, being sure to <BR>> place a check
mardk with space bar on which screenreaders you want to <BR>> use with
Reaper and ReaAccess.<BR>> Open Reaper, and deal with the splash screen,
and the continue to <BR>> evaluate option, until you decide to buy
it.<BR>> press ctrl+P to go to options/preferences, which is a tree
structure.<BR>> Under Audio, arrow to device, then tab down and configure
input and <BR>> output from your audio Device, also called sound card, and
select <BR>> ASIO if your sound card offers it.<BR>> You should
find a line with the name of your sound card, with the word <BR>> Disabled
after it.<BR>> You need to change Disabled to Enabled<BR>> The general
method for all screenreaders is to route the sound card's <BR>> name, or
Disabled, over to your number pad cursor; position the cursor <BR>> on the
sound card name or Disabled; or bring focus to it in NVDA; then <BR>> right
click at the number pad, and the configure dialog should pop up.<BR>> Press
enter on the configure dialog, and at the tab key; place <BR>> checkmarks
with spacebar on:<BR>> use as audio device.<BR>> You need to
enable the first and last audio input jack you want to use <BR>> from your
sound card.<BR>> Tab down to output from your sound card, select first and
last outputs <BR>> to be used, repeat the above steps, tab to Okay and hit
enter on it.<BR>> Enabling your midi device is very similar.<BR>> Still
under the general topic Audio, arrow to midi device, tab to it's <BR>>
name, and get the word Enabled after its name.<BR>><BR>> Tab to apply,
okay, and hit enter.<BR>> You can test to learn if midi messages are
getting into reaper by <BR>> loading a soft synth onto a track.<BR>>
Press ctrl+I<BR>> Arrow to Insert Virtual Synth on a Track.<BR>>
Press enter.<BR>> Tab to Reaper's folders where virtual synths and effects
plugIns are <BR>> stored.<BR>> In VST, arrow to the included synth
called ReaSynth, and press enter <BR>> on it's name.<BR>> It will load
onto its own track.<BR>> Arrowing up or down selects a track.<BR>> Arrow
to the new track that has ReaSynth.<BR>> Tab down to Record source,
which should be Input.<BR>> Tab to Arm for Record, and press spacebar to
turn armed on.<BR>> You need to give ReaSynth an output sound engine, which
can be your <BR>> soundcard, or even the default Microsoft synth.<BR>>
Tab to midi output; and arrow to a sound engine, like your soundcard <BR>>
or Microsoft synth.<BR>> Tab to monitor item; and use space bar to select
either on; or normal.<BR>> Be sure to press enter before exiting to
save these settings.<BR>> You will be returned to the track view.<BR>>
While arrowed to the track With ReaSynth, you should hear its <BR>>
oscillator like beeps when you press your midi keyboard's keys, so <BR>>
you're in business, up and running in Reaper!<BR>> Indi<BR>><BR>> On
