Recording a Keyboard with MIDI -ACID Product Family

Subject:Recording a Keyboard with MIDI Posted by: fresnog Date:10/6/2002 8:18:54 PM I need to know how to set up ACID Pro 4.0a with a keyboard I have. I want to use the keyboard as a midi instrument (or controller, I'm not sure which.....). Ultimately, I want to get a midi track recorded using this keyboard I have. Now, the keyboard has MIDI in/out/thru on the back and I have the MIDI in/out on the front panel of a Live! Drive. How do I connect them to each other? Next, I can't make heads or tails of all the port/thru, etc. info in the Midi tab in Preferences. Lots of device names and "None" under midi thru column.... Help!!!!! Can I play my keyboard as a midi instrument into ACID along with a drum loop and hear the drums and what I'm playing????? By the way, I am using the KX drivers for my soundblaster live! if that makes any difference....
