i need SERIOUS help here.
i had a copy of cubase 5 for the pc,but it wasn't 100% perfect,i could run midi and audio through it no problems. after getting annoyed with the little bugs in it, i decided to download another copy,which i was to discover it wouldn't run audio.
by this time the zip disc that had the original copy had corrupted on me, so i looked for yet another,and whatever copy i got,none of them wiould run midi (audio's ok now),as the box to select the output doesn't have the output i need, "B:SB live! midi synth" (my soundcard is a soundblaster live 5.1)
since it isn't working with any copies,i figured it was my settings that were screwed up. so i looked into the settings under multimedia,and i discovered that under midi devices and instruments,when i click on properties it comes up with the message under status:
"driver is enabled but inactive due to an unknown problem"
i've tried reinstalling cubase,my soundcard drivers and even windows,but it hasn't cured the problem,and now i just don't have any ideas on what to do next.
can anyone give me some advice before i throw my pc out of the window?!?!?!

then what if it didn't work? £300 down the drain
also this copy works perfect on my dad's computer but he doesn't have a decent soundcard in it

Hmm
i dont have the same problem.. i have an SB Live platinum but not the 5.1, mine alwayas defaults to B:SB Live! midi synth.. which annoys the **** out of me cos i want the midi out...
Try the MME Setup.. in the menu when u start cuebase
you can adjust the inputs/outputs there
if that doesnt work
make sure your on the 2nd floor.. and no people below

i downloaded the latest version,cubase 5.1. took me ages on this 56k modem and it's a 32mb file. anyways i installed it,got audio but no midi.
then i removed the old cubase,surprise surprise,no audio,as well as no midi!!!
so i'm gonna get a new soundcard and if that doesn't work,then the pc goes out the window lol
