Guest Peter Posted February 3, 2003 Share Posted February 3, 2003 hello guys.. I finally managed to get myself a Clavia NordLead3 from a friend of mine. But now to the problem: Do I need a midiinterface or can i just plug it in with my midicable into a connection that looks like a Joystickconnection?? Cause i have got a major problem with my Mc505 and Midi, that doesnt work at all. Is that the thing? Just a Midicable into the computer and that should be it?? As you probably understand, I´m not very good in computers. Bye for now my friends.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest poliisi Posted February 3, 2003 Share Posted February 3, 2003 You need to have a soundcard which has midi (and i suppose you do because you have that joystick port) What do you mean by attaching nord and computer. Have the nord as a midi keyboard (playing software synths etc) or have a midi track in your computer that controls your nord? (You make ready midi track that "plays nord for you") And what soundcard do you have. Is it a "real" soundcard or integrated to the motherboard?

Guest Peter Posted February 3, 2003 Share Posted February 3, 2003 Hello.. Thanks for fast answers.. I do have a very poor integrated soundcard and today I have ordered a new computer, but i still need a good soundcard, you have any suggestions?? I only need a card with a Midi connection.. Ok, I am going to use my Nord as a Keyboard and record "live" into cubase.. So, it wont work without a Midiport??? Because my friend were at my house and plug his Synth in and it worked perfectly and all we had was a midicable that converted to a serialport (printercable), maybe it´s my fucking cable that sucks. I´m going to a nervous breakdown soon.. he he Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neliö-eliö Posted February 3, 2003 Share Posted February 3, 2003 hey if you only need a card with midi, then almost any card with a joystick port will do if you have one of those cords that plug into the joystick port Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest roope sarana Posted February 4, 2003 Share Posted February 4, 2003 poor bastard... I have a integrated soundcard too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest poliisi Posted February 4, 2003 Share Posted February 4, 2003 About soundcards: I just bought Terratec EWS88MT and I've been totally satisfied with that. If you're using Midi to play live in cubase, I recommed you to buy good soundcard so you won't get awful big latencys. And there's so many soundcards that I won't take the responsibility of recommending any of those. Suit yourself, there's lotsa options Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
