Thread Starter | Alesis DM5 & Ableton Query, Please Help!!!!
Hi, i Have a bit of a MIDI problem. I'm using an Alesis DM5 connected to a Phonice Firefly 303 which is connected by firewire to my macbook. I Would like to use this set up to fire samples in Ableton from the DM5's pads but i cannot seem to get it all to talk to each other. In the end i would like to be able to trigger stuff like sub drops and elec snares from ableton whilst also having synth and bassline loops playing, all turned on and off in Ableton from the DM5's pads. Is this possible and how can i get it all hooked up? Cheers if anyone can help Phill |

You have connected the Firefly MIDI out to the DM5 MIDI in, right? Then first see if Live can talk to it - draw some notes in a MIDI clip, pick the right MIDI out and use headphones to listen to the DM5. After that post your result and troubleshooting can continue. The rubber buttons on the DM5 may be used for internal auditing but I doubt if they send MIDI notes. Otherwise you should see it in Live if you hook up the DM5 MIDI out to the Firefly MIDI in.
