Hey guys,
 
I am trying to get sound when playing Massive within SONAR using a new but mini keyboard- Samson M25.
 
The Samson M25 and Massive play well together as a stand alone. 
 
So I would just like to get these three jamming together in harmony.
 
This screenshot may help.
 

 
 
Should I tweak some settings from 32 bit to 16?
 
 Thank you.
 
Sincerely,
 
Jay

Hi. Is your keyboard connected via MIDI or usb?
Best of luck.

Have you downloaded the latest usb drivers from Samson? Maybe try a different usb port?

Hopefully that will get you there. If not, try a different usb port (or cable).
Best of luck.

Hi Ken,
 
No drivers for this hardware.
 
Its just plug-in and go.
 
As I posted before, Massive and the Samson M25 work fine outside of SONAR.
 
Do you have any other suggestions?
 
I'm sure there's mapping to be had.
 
Perhaps in the MIDI section of preferences?
 
 
Thanks.

Try using 24 bit instead of 32, and see if that helps. What are your specs? Processor, RAM, etc.?

Hi Jay,
 
I think that when Sonar starts it is taking quite a bit of system resources. Since the usb driver is native, I do not believe that it requires a lot. Your system specs or a screenshot of your system information page would be helpful. Thx.

Thanks guys,
 
Do you know wha theading in the manual "attaching keyboards" to SONAR might be.
 
Or something common like that.
 
I've seen in the Cakewalk forums where there was a dialogue involving a bigger samson music keyboard but I've tried those things and it doesn't work.
 
Here is a CPU-ID .pdf file I uploaded on Scribd.

Its not private.
 
Its full.

Its comprehensive.
 
Thank you.
