Hi,

Composer will automatically detect any MIDI input device. To check to make sure, though, you can

1. open Composer
2. make sure your keyboard or other MIDI instrument is "on"
3. In Composer, click on "Setup" and then "MIDI devices quick setup"
4. Play a few notes on your MIDI instrument - you should see the red "light" flash when you play the notes.

If you do, then all you'll need to do to record into Composer is

1. select a staff
2. click the Record button in the upper left
3. start playing your instrument

If you don't see the "blinky light" when you test your keyboard as described above, let us know and we'll work through this with you.


ttfn,
Sherry
