Help! Having trouble with some software!

[stratovani]

Hi there! I'm a newbie who's having some problems with my recording setup. My DAW is Ableton Live 11 Light, and my MIDI keyboard is M-Audio Oxygen Pro Mini. The MIDI keyboard came with three pieces of software - Hybrid, which is a synth, MiniGrand, which is a piano, and Velvet, which is an electric piano. The problem I'm having is I can't get any of these to record in my DAW. I can record my guitars and basses, and I can record drums using MODO DRUMS, but I can't record these keyboard-based synths. What am I doing wrong? How can I get them to record?

Is there a M audio driver to select in Ableton? Does it not record, but however play the instrument?

Can you check your routing matrix?

Not sure how Ableton works, but in Reaper you would add a track, add one of the Synth/Piano FX to the track, set the input of the track as MIDI and then record. It will record MIDI data, not a "wav" file, you'd have to "render" the track to get a "wav" file if that is what you are looking for. Hope this helps.
