Hi Tony,
I got the Line6 KB37 just after christmas, and I've been struggling ALOT with it since plugging it in.
my biggest issue is that:-
1. I can't get it to work on Reaper (which is my preffered software).
I keep just getting a very unhelpful message saying that the MIDI input could not be opened.
Now and I don't know this is a problem with Reaper or the KB37, but if you could shed some light on it that would be great.

2. I'm getting to grips with the Ableton LiteLive software, but the delay inbetween the time it takes for me to hit my strings and it to register on my PC is incredibly off putting.
I've turned the MS Latency buffering down as low as it can go without making my guitar sound like a frog vomitting.

Once again, if you could help me out here at all, that'd be great

With the KB37 working in Reaper, and it looks like Zeta, you may have some configuration issues to work out on your system. With that, we will mark this thread answered.

Hi Tryryche.

I installed the trial version of Reaper and managed to get my KB37 to work in it, so I tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling Zeta which has worked for that as well. It looks like all my MIDI programs just forgot what controller I'm using, so I'm going to do the same thing with those as well and hopefully all will work out fine...hopefully.

If not, I know where to come for more help. Thanks very much

Apologies for the delay. I had a couple of days out of the house for a change!

I've never used Reaper. Once I get a few minutes spar I'll get the trial and have a look.

In the meantime, if anyone else thinks of anything, all suggestions are thoroughly welcomed!

Havre you tried this in Reaper by any chance?

If you haven't, (and I know it is a pain) maybe you could run the trial version as I can confirm the settings in Reaper.

I usually use it as a vst in Cubase 5 but it can also be used as a stand alone. I've tried a couple of MIDI programs and they all come up with similar reasons for not doing anything so it must be something to do with the KB37. (I assume...)

Robb,

I have never used Zeta. Are you running this as a standalone or as a VST in a DAW?

Hi David.

My KB37 is the only MIDI device I use.

Hi,

This does sound like a driver related issue. What other devices do you have connected to your computer that use MIDI?

Thanks,

David
