Terratec EWX 24/96 & MIDI

Greetings WhoMe - or can I just call you Me? :)

I have a Terratec EWX 24/96 and Home Studio 2002. I can get the VSC DXi working. I do have other issues with my system & HS2002, but generally I'm satisfied with the results.

What I did was to set up a very basic project with Rhodes, Piano, Electric Piano, Bass, Other & Drums. I saved this project as BASE.WRK, so whenever I want to start up a new project I click on Base.wrk and it's already set up for me complete with VSC DXi.

All I have to do then is come up with the killer riff, fancy chords and Save As my latest tune ;)

When you say you tried the Terratec Configuring the EWS88MT/EWS88D/EWX 24/96 for Sonar but it didn't work, I presume you mean it didn't solve your inability to hear MIDI?

The Microsoft midi synth is playing back at 22khz and i can't hear audio from sonar during midi playback because the audio is at 44khz? Conversely, when the audio track is set up, i can't hear the midi synth because the audio from sonar is using the ewx driver at 44khz and the midi synth would need 22khz to play?
That's a bit too technical for my feeble knowledge to contend with I'm afraid :( What I can tell you though is that you will need to set up one of your audio tracks in your project for your DXi. The instructions in your manual Using Soft Synths explains it clearly.

I just tried this with Tutorial5.BUN setting up the guitar audio track FX box to accept the VSC DXi and it worked :) I patched an electric piano in there and set up a MIDI track, voila, audio & MIDI together.

BluesMeister, you have just solved my problem!

And Thanks to all others who suggested trying DXi, i should have tired it earlier. For some reason it didn't install with sonar so i was thinking DXi? Whaa?, but i popped the cd in and installed it separately, works like a charm!

Thanks!
