I have a Yamaha Clavinova CLP-930 electric piano and the USB-MIDI Interface UX16 cord to transfer the music.
I use Garageband ’09 for the music. I did everything the instructions said, and I clicked record on the computer, played notes on the piano, and no notes showed up in the track.
I used the "software instrument" for a new track.
Am I missing something?
Did you install the drivers for the UX16 and restart your computer after installing them? I’ve never used the CLP-930, but is there maybe a switch on it that says like, "Mac" and "PC"? I know my Yamaha P-90 has one like that on the side next to the midi ports.
Once the drivers are installed, you should go into the Garageband preferences and check the MIDI pane to see if your interface is being detected once it’s connected and turned on. A lot of the times when things don’t work for me, it generally has to do with the Preferences, or I forget to arm the track for recording.
Hopefully it was just something simple like you forgetting to install the drivers, because that’d be easy to fix.
