Corrupt data i have casio privia px 410r. its working perfectly on the first time i connect to my laptop. But when i used the casio data manager to convert midi to SMF0 and send it to the keyboard the casio data manager asks to set the midi in and midi out. something went wrong the midi disabled. Now the computer connot recognizes the keyboard everytime i connect the usb midi cable. Only the usb doesn't work, the rest is fine.

SOURCE: Casio Privia PX-120 cannot be connected to Reason or FL

When you are using midi the sounds from your keyboard aren't sent anywhere. What happens is control messages are sent over the midi cable from midi out to midi in on the other device which must have midi sounds on it (in your case the sound card) to make any sounds. The messages can be things like note on/of or pitch bend etc. If you want to send messages to produce a result on your laptop and still here something you can loop the messages by running from midi out on the device end ( your laptop) back to midi in on your keyboard. A much better explanation is available here:http://www.indiana.edu/~emusic/etext/MIDI/chapter3_MIDI.shtml I also signed up to this site (its free) that has great people and lots of info:http://www.recordingreview.com/ I recommend downloading Killer Home Recording setting up which at this time is also free and has the best advice you could want in it. I'd also recommend checking out Reaper which is comparable to Reason, Cubase or Protools. If this helps please let me know.
