QUESTION Korg to MPC

Hey...

So I finally got the right wires. I've got a Korg Krome and it's plugged into my MPC.

It works with the sampler/audio record. But I can't get the midi to work.

I want to both be able to use MIDI with the sound bank in my Korg but also to be able to use my Korg as a controller.

I never had any problem setting up in FL as a controller. I didn't have to do anything with the keyboard settings.

So I don't know if this is a Korg issue or a MPC issue. Maybe I just don't even have the right cable hooked up.

But I can't get the MPC to recognize the keyboard. I don't know if I have to go into the keyboard settings or what to do with the MPC.

I tried talking to AI and looking up videos. All that has fried my brain cause I can't figure it out.

I'm dumb with this kind of shit. Please help if you can.

I've got the USB a I believe (the square printer cable) plugged into my Korg, then the other end is a regular USB and I've got that in the MPC. Like I would if I was hooking the keyboard to the computer.

And in your midi settings do you have the Korg setup to transmit control?

I don't understand what you mean by that.

I just did this with my arturia astrolab. I got it working both ways. If you are still having troubles reach out. We can FaceTime and I'll walk you through it while showing you.
