Hey!
I just got a Tascam U-144, bundled with a few goodies! mainly so I can record guitar, mess around and try out a few things.
I know Cubase reasonably well, not amazing but i've been studying midi at college for over a year now so I can figure out most things by now.
Issue1
I have the interface as my VST device or whatever its called in setup devices so I can play guitar and it show up and I can hear it through the Tascam headphones jack.
However if I use midi, for example a Guitar Pro export it plays through my main sound system (Creative soundcard) but not the interface so if i'm using headphones to record guitar to a song i've written in midi I only have the click to play to, I can't hear the drums or other instruments that are using Midi.
The output of the midi channels is the ole Wavetable Synth or something, I've tried changing it to other things and I can get Midi Out lighting up on interface but still no sound.
Any idea or is this a limitation?

Issue 2
Before I discovered the above issue I had a midi from guitar pro that I wanted to record with real instruments but use my drum track from Guitar Pro.
It imported fine, GM drum map shows that the drums are the same and it sounds fine using the original midi synth (wavetable thing again) but if I change the output to a VST drum I get the drums playing delayed..
I don't understand this? Any ideas..
Help appreciated, I hope these aren't limitations!
Using:
Quadcore processor, 2.4ghz (IRC)
2gig ram (4gig soon mind)
Tascam U-144
Cubase LE
Creative X-Fi xtrememusic (Pc's normal output)
