Hi, I’d really like to help but I need to know a little more about your setup first!

– What type of sound card do you have? E.g., M-Audio FastTrack USB, RealTek on-board or such. If you haven’t used ASIO before, I assume you also haven’t installed any drivers for your sound card?

– Have you been able to use your keyboard on this computer with other sequencers? If you didn’t try yet please check in this program called VST Host (http://www.hermannseib.com/english/vsthost.htm).

If nothing works… hmm, I’ll probably be back in Vienna around Christmas. Just thinking maybe I could take a look at it first hand. 😉

hey thanks for your request 😀

– My soundcard is a standard built-in Realtek soundcard
And I have ASIO4ALL 2.10 (the newest version) installed on Windows 7 … but either I don’t understand how to use it or it doesnt work on Windows 7 for some reason…

– thanks that you posted this link!! I tried out my keyboard on VSTHost and it worked without any problems and I did not even had to set up the drivers or anything..

so as it looks like, its a problem with Zynewave & not with my keyboard…
Do you know what could be the problem?

Thanks for ya help & Peace

EDIT:
By the way… is it possible that I need to plug the power supply into the keyboard? (I would need to buy this…) but normally the keyboard should also work without it (worked with no problems in VSThost…)
But I think maybe that could be the problem because the error message is that the midi keyboard is not “powered on” or not connected.. for what else should the power supply be there?
