I plug it into my computer, I plug it into my MIDI keyboard, I put the batteries into the keyboard, and I turn it on. I pull up ACID Pro, my music editing software, and I try to configure it to detect my MIDI device. And to my surprise, despite having installed properly, it wasn't there. I open up a piano program to try that out, and it happened to show up. I band on the keyboard(the musical one), but alas, nothing.
After some research I found... nothing. Not a damn thing. No reason, no solution, it was a true first.
As a last resort, I tried a good old fashioned power cycle. And to my surprise, it worked. Almost.
I open the program up again, ACID Pro, and I try to configure it. And it was there. Finally. It showed up.
I set it up, opened up a MIDI track, and smash on the keyboard again. AND MUSIC CAME OUT. It works. Absolutely lovely. And then...
I pulled out the MIDI part, so I can try the guitar out. Set up the guitar, check back in the program. And then... again, nothing. This thing clearly hates me. I restart my computer, load it all up, and it seems that now the guitar works. I switch it back to the keyboard, and the same damn thing happens.
Apparently I have to reboot each time I plug in or switch out the instruments.
