MIDI In from Ableton Live not working

Post by StonecipherB »

Hello,

I'm trying to set up my three volcas so they can be sequenced using Ableton Live. I connected my volca Bass to my computer (a mac) using the E-MU xmidi1x1 tab. I configured my volca Bass to use channel 1. I then set up the Midi track in Ableton so that it sends to the MIDI Channel 1 of the E-MU interface. No sound comes out, whether I'm inputting a few notes using my keyboard or I program some in Ableton's sequencer. The volca Bass is otherwise functioning properly (if I press its keyboard a sound comes out).

I tried the same thing with the volca Keys and Beats and neither works either.

Does anyone have an idea of what the source of the problem could be? Given that none of the volcas work, I suspect it has to do with the E-MU interface, but the user guide says it's supported by Mac by default, so I'm not sure what to think.

Many thanks in advance for your help!
