Korg Padkontrol and Logic
Aug 6th, 2010, 11:56
New thread... New question : )
I have a Korg padKontrol (drum pad) but i can't get it recognized correctly in logic. i have a Korg Triton LE 88 key keyboard i run midi sometimes and that works perfectly and is recognized automatically. although the padkontrol is recognized as a midi device in logic i can't figure out how to configure it correctly so it is useful, even when i went through the help section in logic i didn't know what to do. (Also to note the padKontrol works fine in Reason)
I connect it via USB as a midi control surface.
Here is what just happened when I connected it with logic open via usb.Made a midi channel in record mode set to open library. Library opens and file folders pop up in Media>Library tab on Right Hand side. They are:
"abelton live" (empty)
"GM Device" (has 16 sounds in it)
"Other objects"
"padkontrol CTRL" which then has 16channels (i dont know what they mean) and
"padkontrol midi out" (again with 16 channels i don't know what they mean) and "reason adapted" (empty)
and the normal library sounds aren't an option either. i hear nothing when i record midi this way although it shows in the piano roll that there are notes being written.
My confusion here is probably confusing you. if you could start at the beginning of how the heck to set up this control surface correctly or how to check and see how it is currently set up in logic that would be awesome.
Thank you!
