FL Studio MIDI assistance

Hey, this is really annoying me. I can't seem to get my midi working with FL studio.

I've got a Yamaha P85 as a midi controller, an Edirol UA25 preamp and FL studio.

I have a midi out from the p85 into the midi in on my preamp, which is then plugged in via USB to my laptop.

In FL studio it won't show up as an input under controllers. Any ideas?

    Have you tried swapping the in/out cables? I don't mean the physical cables, but the inputs.

    However I'm pretty sure the P85 won't show up as a controller itself, because it's connected via midi. You'd need to simply select the midi port from your preamp as the Midi IN and then it should work.

    Do you have the most recent drivers updated? Also, I know with mine if you don't have the input device plugged in before you start FL it won't recognize it.

    Make sure you have the latest drivers installed for the Edirol unit and have it connected prior to launching FL Studio.

    In FL Studio, click Options > MIDI settings. Under Input, you should see the Edirol device. Highlight it and click the Enable button.

    Thanks guys. Wasn't working so I reinstalled the drivers, rebooted then it showed up.

    Then all my patches sounded out of tune. Turns out my sample rate wasn't the same and that was messing it up.

    Now it's all perfect! Thanks guys
