Pa3x with Cubase6

Post by Maky »

Hi all,

I have connected my Pa3x through USB cable to my PC, using the installation file (.exe) form the download page and also have loaded the Cubase template also.
What is happening now is that I can play with my Pa3x and record in Cubase using my pa3x sounds. however the playing and recorded sounds are coming out of my Pa3x not my PC Sound Card (Fast Track Pro)?

and my plug-in sounds (Cubase sounds) are only come out from my PC sound card?
This means I cannot have my Pa3x and Cubase plugin sounds playing back same time from a single device (Pa3x or PC Sound Card).... ? :?

any advice is much appreciated!

Thanks,
Makan

Looks like you've configured your midi setup correctly, because you're able to use your PA3x to transmit midi. You probably need to set up an Aux track in cubase and choose the proper I/O.

You can, but not through the USB cable - since it can only transfer MIDI, not audio. To do what you ask for, you need to use audio cables between the Pa3x and the pc.
