Motu ultralite mk3 synth connection

Post by npeppas »

Hello,

I am new to this so please bare with me if I have posted in the wrong forum or if I can't explain correctly my problem.

I installed Motu ultralite mkIII to my imac running snow leopard and everything worked fine. I tested it with my studio monitors and I could hear the sounnds of my computer through the monitors.
BUT when I tried to connect my KURZWEIL PC3X synth to the motu interface as mentioned in the manual (through the input gates 7-8) I could not hear any sound at all from my synth not only from my monitors but also from the headphones located in the motu interface. What am I doing wrong?
(I haven't connected any MIDI cable yet because for the moment I haven't installed any DAW. I just want to hear my synth through the motu utralite and from my studio monitors)

Thank you in advance for your time and help.

Open the CueMix FX and check to see if you have a signal going through the mixer.
Check to see if the fader is down on the channels where you connected the keyboard.

I also think that there are new drivers up on the site, but the site seems to be down for the moment.

Thank you for your reply.
I did that but still no sound... (the faders are moving when I press the keys but I can't hear anything)

Did you try other inputs? Like 3 and 4?

yes I did... still no sound...
I feel I have to somehow show motu how to configure the input in order to "understand" the sound.. but I don't know how to do that exactly.
