I used cubase many years ago for composing and used the cables I have to go form the piano direct to the PC. I now have a laptop and am using the same cables (the one into laptop goes straight into the microphone area). But I am not a techie and don’t know why it is not recognising it. When I put the plug into the mic whole, it asks if am using as headset or mic, so obviously recognises.
Have a 2 year old laptop, acer, running on Windows 8. I have just downloaded the trial version for 30 days but spent 3 days not knowing how to get sound in. Can anyone help? Do i need something as an inbetween?
Thanks for replying. I’m not sure I understand. I want to play music on the digital piano (yes, is a Roland and digital) and for it to record what I am playing (my compositions) through there into Cubase, so I can go ahead and edit. I hope that clarifies?
I took the easy route and purchased the Steinberg CI1, its an easy plug and play just change the vst connections and also has a headphone socket so that the neighbours are not rocking lol
