It's how you get audio in and out of the computer, for things like recording.

What is an audio interface? Joe On 6/25/2021 2:15 PM, Seth Lowman wrote: Whether or not you get that module, definitely try Proteus on your Windows 7 machine. It has some stellar sounds on it that you won’t want to miss. As far as hooking up the Triton module to your computer, since the module is an older machine that probably doesn’t use USB, you’ll need a midi interface and a five pin din midi cable. If you have an audio interface, it may already have a midi interface built into it, and if that’s the case you could just use that with a midi cable. If not, Yamaha and Roland make midi to USB interfaces that, if I’m not mistaken, are fairly inexpensive. https://www.zzounds.com/item--ROLUMONEMK2 and https://www.amazon.com/Yamahaa-UX-16-Yamaha-Usb-midi-Interface/dp/B00008BCXY/ref=dp_prsubs_2?pd_rd_i=B00008BCXY&psc=1 Also, you were asking about instrument list earlier I believe. Either of the Proteus VX Instrument lists will work, though the one that has cat in the name is set up so you can navigate by instrument categories: for example, you can press P repeatedly to navigate through all the pianos, L repeatedly to navigate through the synthesizer lead patches, etc. God bless!

I have a Win 7 machine and will probably try this, using Yoke as the cable. I have an alternate which was just offered me. It's a Triton Rack. I successfully used that some years ago. If that instrument still works, I'd like to use it. Question is how to connect it to my computer. I can use my keyboard as a controler by connecting it to my computer, but how do I send the output of the computer to the Triton. I suspect there's an intermediary program needed here. This has been a truly frustrating experience for me, and perhaps those on this list. Thank your kindness and patience. Joe G. On 6/24/2021 1:32 PM, Seth Lowman wrote: Well good to know. Maybe I won’t be updating to windows 10 anytime soon if I can’t run that on it. Of course, if anybody else has gotten Proteus VX to work on windows 10, please chime in. I’ve heard that windows 10 is a huge pain in the neck as it is, as Microsoft keeps updating and changing things all over the map. The only thing I can think for you to do, Joe, is the try running Proteus VX on an older computer if you have one. It runs well on my Windows 7 PC, which is mostly what I use for work with QWS. Sadly, my Windows 8 machine barely works anymore; it had to travel a lot with me while I was in college, and with all the shaking and jostling it took in my backpack, it seems to have developed motherboard issues.

I am running Win 10 and it may be different from your OS. I still can make Proteus VX run because of problems with audio drivers. When I did a search for this program, I found various versions. Maybe I got the wrong one. I'm floundering around here and sinking. Someone just offered me a Triton Rack. If it still works, that would bail me out of this. I can send instructions from the controler to the computer, but how would I connect the computer to the MIDI In on the Triton? Thank you for all your info. Joe G.

It gave me an error first time I opened it, so what I did was went into the context menu, (press your applications key or right click the mouse), and chose run as administrator, and it worked.
