M-Audio Keyboard setup

[Jesse Johannesen]

Jesse,
i've been trying to find help everywhere, from manuals to you tube , forums etc.. i tried to play with the midi environment not only in Logic but within Mac osx itself,
found also a seemingly amazing software that could have solved the problem (Midi Patchbay) BUT it does not work in Catalina ..

however, i found the most stupid solution ever, as i knew it would have been. In the M_Audio preset app, which it is NOT supported in Catalina so they say not to update
i tried to change channel, select different zone etc.. nothing was working.. this is because the interface is so badly made that when you change a parameter and think it's all good it actually did not do anything. To actually confirm you have to get out of the app window, where the options are, and click SEND PRESET...
this one button solves all the problems and the NDLR changes chords as expected using the keyboard...

I wasted a lot of time, as it often happens with tech, but above all i wasted a lot of YOURS.
So maybe this will be helpful to you in case someone else has the same problem, and thanks again for being kind and responsive .

all the best and please do other great and fun tools as the NDLR, you definitely have a trusted and happy client here
cheers

Oh good, that's great news! Don't worry about me, I'm just glad we found the solution, and also that it's now documented here for the next chap to roll through with an MAudio keyboard and Catalina! That's the thing about technology it's only hard until it works, then you don't have to think about it again.

Be sure to let me know if you need help with anything else,
Jesse
