    Hey man, great video, thank you! I wanted to ask you if it’s possible to play REAL-TIME different sounds than what FP-30X provides via VST into a DAW for example. I am sure there are better sounds out there than what FP-30X has available, that’s why I am looking into this. Lastly, will the audio be output from the monitors connected to the computer or do the monitors have to be connected to the FP-30X directly?

    Hi, I have a Yamaha P-95 and I just can't figure out how to get it to send signal to my mac. I just bought a FORE MIDI to USB cable to connect to my piano, I have the out and in reversed, and my computer is recognizing that there is a USB MIDI interface connected; however, it WILL NOT send signal no matter what I do. I read that this cable should be plug and play but that didn't work so I downloaded the software you covered in this video and it still doesn't work. I am using FL Studio 21 and I have an Akai MPK mini keyboard that I have connected before so I know my settings are not off. Everything is enabled and my MIDI options tab in FL reacts to plugging in my P-95 calling it a "USB MIDI Interface; Generic Controller" yet when I press notes, it sends 0 data to my DAW and does not respond. I'm becoming exhausted and discouraged, do you know of any fixes?

      If it’s midi, you will need to pick a piano under software as an instrument in your DAW (Digital Work Station, like Logic Pro, etc) you can select any sound your software has for Midi. To record the actual piano sound, you’ll need to record your piano like a microphone or ‘line’ instrument, but you don’t get the benefits of the Midi data

    • @KH-mq4rg
      @KH-mq4rg 6 місяців тому +3

      @@KhalidQahtani-md7im You can record directly to your computer without an interface, but it depends on what you want to record:
      1. **Recording MIDI**: If you're just recording MIDI data (the notes you play, but not the actual sound from the keyboard), you can usually connect your Yamaha PSR-3000 directly to your computer using a USB cable if your keyboard has a USB-to-Host port. MIDI data is just information about which notes are played and how hard they're pressed, so it doesn't require an audio interface.
      2. **Recording Audio**: If you want to record the actual sounds from your keyboard (the audio), then it gets a bit trickier. In theory, you can connect the headphone or line-out jack of your keyboard directly to your computer's line-in or microphone port using the appropriate cable. However, the sound quality might not be the best due to potential noise and lower quality of the computer's built-in sound card.
      An audio interface comes in handy here because it's designed to capture high-quality audio from external sources like your keyboard. It provides better sound quality, lower noise, and often has features like phantom power for microphones if you need that in the future.
      So, in summary:
      - For MIDI: No interface needed, just a USB cable.
      - For Audio: Direct connection is possible but an interface is recommended for better quality.
