MicroKorg as MIDI keyboard for GarageBand

Post by JiffiPop »

Hello,

I recently got a MicroKorg and would like to use it as a MIDI keyboard for GarageBand. I have this MIDI to USB cable: Amazon.com: SANOXY USB MIDI Cable Converter PC to Music Keyboard Window Win Vista XP, Mac OS: Computers & Accessories

I've tried plugging it into my MacBook Pro and MicroKorg, but GarageBand will not pick up on it. Additionally, not all of the lights on the interface light up. For most the part, only the red light (the In light) actually lights up. There was a short two minute period where I had all of the lights on, but even then GarageBand still didn't recognize the MicroKorg. Also, I've made sure that the MicroKorg is on the MIDI setting on the Edit Select 2 knob, but I also am not entirely sure on how to use the different channels.

Another thing I should mention is that I've tried looking for drivers for the Microkorg and have had little luck finding any even on Korg's website.
