Can you use a midi controller keyboard to play the sounds in the p606 software.. and if so.. how??... i have the keyboard connected thru usb and basically what i want to do is create a bassline from the software and sequence it into the sp606...any help would be great!

also... as i mentioned... my midi keyboard is connected to my computer thru usb.... do i still need to make a midi connection from my keyboard to the sp606?

Yo, does anybody with a 606 an midi knowledge got help for this cat?

thanks for the support! i am pretty sure i need to hook up a midi cable but i could still use sum knowledge

you will need a tiny utility like "midi input viewer" which virtual connects the midi from your key to sp606...
why dont you plug a midi cable?you can avoid playing the samples from sp606 by selecting a different midi channel so you only play P606...
also make sure to enable midi thru function...
(you'll find these options in sp606 func+midi util)

hmmm... I'm confused now... Basically... what I want to do is this...

...but on the sp606 of course....can it be done?

otherwise I'm giving up on midi and returning my keyboard lol

In Reason and in most other programs you just enable through properties the usb keyboard ,
But in P606 u can't do that ,so your keys MUST pass through Sp606...
It can be done with the 2 ways i told you...

I don't think a simple midi connection can be very difficult (to avoid the usb virtual connection)!
Just try and we will help!

bah... I'm selling my midi keyboard lol... im just gonna sample the sounds i want off reason and put them on my pads....save myself some money
