Hi all...
I'm sure that this has been asked many times (by other guitarists probably).

I have a PC running Cubase, and i've got it all running nicely. Recording analogue (old school) stuff & also using various VST instruments....

I use an old Evolution 249C (M-Audio)controller keyboard as my VST controller connected to my PC via a midi-cable into an M-Audio 10/10LT s/card....

OK, your either bored by now or i've done such a bad job of explaining things that you've given up!!!!

Right! I've also got some old gear flying around such as Yamaha TX81Z, Akai S2000, Proteus 1 etc (ehhmmm. real quality stuff). Given that the controller only has a midi-out, how am i supposed to connect/cable the rack gear....

I guess that someones bound to say 'stick with soft synths' but i'd really like to know/understand...

I guess that once cabled they will magically appear in Cubase?

Thanks in advance for any help...

Cheers

Dave
