Doesnt work?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I have a Casio CTK-810 and I places the .plugin file in the
library/audio/midi drivers folder. I've tried this on both of my macs (os x
10.4.8) and nothing has happened. When I open Audio/Midi setup, it does not
see the new device. Please advise.

Did you try rebooting ? Some people commented on the wiki that it worked after 
a reboot. There are also reports 
that the CTK-810 should work with this driver.

What kind of macs do you have and how do you connect the keyboard to them ?

I tried rebooting & I still can't seem to get the midi driver to work.  My 
computer doesn't recognize the file as a 
driver.  It comes up as if it were a pc file.  I have a Casio WK-3300 and a 
Macbook w/ OS 10.4.11.  Any ideas?

Did you try copying the file in your Library/Audio/MIDI Drivers and reboot 
after that, as described on the main 
page? Trying to open the file won't do anything.

Others managed to make it work with a WK-3300.

Sorry, forgot to add the word "folder" in the first sentence. It should read:

Did you try copying the file in your "Library/Audio/MIDI Drivers" folder and 
reboot after that ?

You can either put it in your own Library folder, found in your home folder, or 
the system's library, which is at 
the root of your system's drive and will be available to other users of your 
computer.

You are a genius.  I ended up trashing the whole thing and downloading it 
again.  Then rebooted. And now it 
works.  Thanks!!!

The signal is coming in really low though. Do you know of a way to boost the 
signal?

What software are you using?

Had a casio CTK-551... restarted, etc, but no success. Running Mac 0.5.5 Intel 
Core 2 Duo

The CTK-551 isn't a USB keyboard and this driver isn't meant for it.

on
this site.

Unfortunately, I cannot test it on Mac OS X 10.3, since I only have an Intel 
Mac. Maybe someone else can help on 
this.

i have a mac pro and am trying to hook up my Casio WK-1800  usb, and copied as 
per instructed under 
library\audio\midi drivers; it doesn't see the driver when i go into my midi 
utility, nor does it recognize in the 
system preferences audio.  i went into Garage Band to see if it even sees the 
midi driver, and sees nothing.

Does it matter which usb port I plug into?  I tried both the front and the back 
ports, to no avail.  Any help would 
be greatly appreciated.  Have a safe and happy new Year.

Is your keyboard really a WK-1800? I looked online for its manual and it 
doesn't seem to have an USB port, but 
has MIDI ports. Are you using a MIDI to USB interface? If so, you will need a 
driver from the interface 
manufacturer.

Could it be a WK-3800, which has an USB interface? If so, maybe your keyboard 
doesn't have the exact same 
MIDI interface as the one I wrote this driver for. If you have the Developer 
Tools installed (found on your Mac OS 
X DVD) you can run "USB Prober" and see if your keyboard shows up and please 
report the Manufacturer and 
Product IDs. However, the WK-3800 is already reported to be working with the 
driver.

I haven't quite sorted this issue out yet.  I needed a larger size keyboard for 
some piano playing/sequencing  
as my little M-audio Oxygen 8 wouldn't cut it so, I borrowed my 8 year old 
daughter's Casio CTK 720 and 
downloaded this  driver.  I worked great ....the keyboard worked perfectly with 
Ableton Live and I did the 
necessary sequencing without a hitch.   However, I noticed that  My Oxygen 8 
doesn't work at all.  It powers up 
but, the Mac refuses to recognize  it or any messages it transmits.  I 
uninstalled and then re-installed the m-
audio drivers (the ones available from their website...most up to date and 
Leopard compatible) to no avail.   I 
am gong to start fresh see what happens.   I also have an Akai MPD 24, whose 
functionality hasn't been 
affected at all....I'll be uninstalling/re-installing the drivers for it  as 
well.

I have a casio lk 210. i downloaded your plugin and it appears in the midi 
folder that it should be in. however 
the driver doesn't seem to power up my usb casio to work for Reason 3.0. this 
casio worked on my dell, but i use 
the new MacBook now. Reason still won't recognize any midi controllers, and I 
am getting a message from the 
CoreMIDIServer.framework that it cannot execute the binary file. 

please help!!!!!!! thanks =]

Just to make sure - did you unpack the downloaded file? The "cannot execute the 
binary file" makes me think 
you didn't, or the driver got corrupted somehow in the download process.

Could you describe what you attempted? The LK-215 has been reported to work in 
Dec. 2007. Could you 
describe your setup?

does this work on osx 10.3.9? my computer does not seem to be reacting.

Original comment by thebuzz...@gmail.com on 5 May 2009 at 12:14

[GoogleCodeExporter]

No, you currently need OS X 10.4 or higher. I do not have access to earlier 
Macs, sorry.

The Google Driver works perfectly with CASIO LK-41 Keyboard on Leopard 10.5.6. 
Just
downloaded the zip and copied the plugin into the suggested folder.

Thank you google coders.

Is there any way to get the tones from the keyboard to play back on the 
computer instead of back through the keyboard?  I have only been able to 
playback Software Instruments in Logic.  

I am using a WK-3300 with a Mac 10.5.8.  Any suggestions would be greatly 
appreciated.  Thanks!

This can't be done with MIDI only, you need to use an audio capture interface, 
like the line-in port on your computer.

Original comment by perso...@francoisferland.com on 8 Jan 2011 at 4:19

... and I assume you worked out the issue you had in comments 23-24, good to 
know the MIDI works!

Original comment by perso...@francoisferland.com on 8 Jan 2011 at 4:21

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Does an audio capture interface require the keyboard to have MIDI In/Out ports? 
 And yes, I figured it out - thanks for all of your help!  Saved me a lot of 
hassle.

Original comment by dtracy1%...@gtempaccount.com on 15 Jan 2011 at 1:18

No, but it needs a line-out. An headphones output works too. Try plugging a 
cable (1/4" or 1/8" to 1/8") between the headphones jack of the keyboard to the 
microphone input of your Mac, if you have one. On recent laptops with a dual 
headphone/mic iPhone-style plug you might need some kind of Y-adapter.

I've a Privia PX-320 and a Mac Pro running OSX. I downloaded the driver and 
dropped the .plugin file into my MIDI Driver folder and rebooted. Its still not 
working. Hopefully I'm just missing something small because it would be nice to 
plug and play quickly in Garage Band and Logic. Any advice???

Other users in the wiki reported it as working. Which version of the driver did 
you try ? On OSX 10.5 or 10.6 ? Does it show in the Audio/MIDI Preferences ?

Does this work with Mavericks?  I am not having any luck.  The only thing I am 
able to do is use the installer and it is not working.

Original comment by i...@harvestfortwayne.org on 1 Oct 2014 at 8:12

Yes, I confirm it should work on Mavericks (10.9), at least with my 
configuration. Could you describe yours? What model of Casio keyboard do you 
have ?
