Hi all,
Im trying to arrange it so i can use my Alesis DM5 drum kit to trigger kick and snare noises i have made in ableton. So far i have put the sounds in to a Drum rack and i can trigger them with the macs keyboard using the keyboard midi option. How do i set it up so i can trigger these noises with my kit? i HAVE PLUG IT IN to the MIDI OUT FROM THE kit and to the midi in on the sound card. I get a signal from the kit when i hit it but only only the wee volume bar at the side of the drum rack. it doesn't trigger any of the drum rack cells though so i can't just drag and drop the sound in to the right cell. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks folks.
