  1. ok, had a cable, and installed the drivers.

    Looks like there are 2 midi items.

    But couldn't get anything to work,  I have found an S970.ins file,  but not for the S975.ins  (i have a PSR-S975)   unless there is a way to create that?

    Prob. need to do some more reading, since nothing seemed to work..

    You don't need any additional MIDI adapter to connect PSRS970/S975 to Cakewalk. Yamaha PSRS970/S975 has built in MIDI adapter for you to connect to your PC using USB cable. Just get the proper USB cable, connect to your PC, and Windows will automatically install the generic driver to use. Or better yet, download the Yamaha driver (I think it's better than generic Windows driver).

    https://usa.yamaha.com/products/musical_instruments/keyboards/arranger_workstations/psr-s970/downloads.html

    Once you install it, the device will show in Cakewalk's preferences MIDI device. There you can then define / import the ins file.

    Oh, so I don't need a Midi cable,  just an USB cable?

    Even for doing all the midi stuff?

     

  3. I modified several midi files, and added CC7 where i turned the volume to 0

    but once I play it on my keyboard, the sound is still there.  so I am kinda confused on what I am missing here?

    I open the track and go to piano roll, and add a new item Volume and draw a line for the whole track

    I do see that at the end, it has a channel which is set to 1.  

    Even through I am on track 4,5 or 10

  4. Thank you.

    I found one,  and trying to find, where to import it..  

    I am reading this article http://www.jososoft.dk/yamaha/articles/insfiles.htm   but  not finding this in Cakewalk.

    So I am wondering it that was for an older version.  Unless I don't know what I am looking for,,

    And looking here:  https://www.cakewalk.com/Support/Knowledge-Base/2007013272/Instrument-Definitions#Import

    The Define button is greyed out, nor can I select anything else on that screen. ?

  5. Hi,

    I am new to this, and was playing with the Free Cakewalk.
    Since I don't have any midi adapters yet for my laptop,  is it possible to setup cakewalk, that it know what sounds a Yamaha PSR 970/975 has?
    I don't know if it's possible, or if that's how it works.

    currently I am just opening a midi file.  Edit it, and save it back,  and the sound is always different.

     

    Any help is appreciated :)
