View Original Thread: Trying to Connect Electribe to Logic

what am i doing wrong?

I created an audio instrument track.
I Chose the Electribe EA1 in a thing called the Logic Setup Assistant in Preferences.
I have a logic book and it says to Choose the Audio Instrument from the blank audio instrument slot above the Output setting in the Channel Strip.

when i click on it - I don't see the EA-1 anywhere - I see Mono. stereo. Multiple channels - then from those: "Au Generators" and "Logic" - where you choose the instruments WITHIN Logic - but where is my Electribe? This book is not helping me at all!

Am I describing this right?

Are you using the MIDI ports and the analog ports to hook it up? Into what type/kind of soundcard are you doing this?

A friend of mine helped me. I had it hooked to the midi output of the Electribe instead of the audio output. I've got it doing exactly what i intended now...

He also told me how to do midi syncing where you have the midi coming out of the computer into the Electribe - If i get really adventurous today maybe i'll try it...

Yes sir, it's a common thing to hook up backwards in all the excitement. I simply refer to it as a loose nut on the keyboard :)
