Hi everyone,
I'm a newby to Reaper and unfortunately I can't get it to play sound. I'm trying with my new Alesis VMini Midi Keyboard (which I also never used before, so it's 2 "Firsts").
I think I set up Reaper correctly. That's what I did:
- Preferences -> Midi-Devices: Enable VMini (I didn't enable another device called "MIDIIN2 (VMini), because enabling it doesn't seem to do anything)
- Preferences -> Devices: Audio System: Asio, Asio Driver: Asio4All
- add a track
- input-midi > VMini > Channel 1
- Record Monitoring ON
- Record: input (audio or midi)
- FX: RearSynth(Cockos)
- record armed
I can see in the Mixer at the bottom, that the input is working when I press buttons on the keyboard. However, I can't hear anything.
However, I think my sound settings on my laptop are wrong. Asio4All was not preinstalled, I downloaded it. In it I can select 2 Output sources: Bluetooth-Audio and Conexant 20672 Audio HD. In microsofts device manager I can see that Bluetooth is disconnected, and Conexant is connected. The weird thing is, in the Asio settings its the other way around! If i activate Conexant, no sound works anymore. Also the input in reaper doesnt work anymore. On the other hand it doesn't make sense that it works with Bluetooth channel!
Sorry if it was a stupid question, I just really wanna try reaper and the VMini
