Decided to put this page up for all you guys and gals
out there having a
problem getting your USB-MIDI cable working in the
new Windows 7
Ok the product we are talking about is the cable you can buy on Ebay and there are a few versions....
+ other versions...
Downloading driver from
http://www.emu.com/support/files/storage/E..._L6_1_01_04.exe
(If the Link changes it is the Vista driver for EMU x Midi 1x1 cable)
Used WinRAR to extract the contents of this file
(available from
http://www.rarlabs.com)
Once WinRAR is installed right click the EXE file and choose
extract
option
- plugged in the USB Midi Cable
- goto the device manager - Type in devmgmt.msc then [enter] in the Start Search text box
- sound, Video and Game Controllers was already expanded with VIEWCON having a yellow icon
- clicked VIEWCON and chose option UPDATE DRIVER SOFTWARE
- chose Browse My Computer for driver software
- chose Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer
- chose the 'Have Disk' option and pointed it
to the inf file in the folder I had extracted
i.e. \EmmP_PCDrv_L6_1_01_04\Binary\Drivers\driver\emuxmidi.inf
THAT SHOULD NOW WORK !
BLINDSKUNK - ELECTRONIC MUSIC
