Hi all. I found an Ozonic cheap and decided to get it, but I'm really a beginner when it comes to audio software and MIDI controllers. The manuals aren't really helping me much, and I'm having trouble getting sound out of the keyboard. From what I can tell, Ableton's picking it up (the box at the top right is flashing green when I press a key), but I can't seem to produce any sound.

Anyone here have either the Ozonic or Ableton and might be able to lend me a hand (or at least point me to a helpful site)? It'd be much appreciated. Thanks.

First check Live's MIDI/Sync Preferences - make sure the the device (it's USB, right?) is showing up under "MIDI ports" and the Track setting is "on."

Next make sure you've added a MIDI instrument (try any of the Simpler presets) to a MIDI track and make you click the Arm Session Recording Button for that track. It'll turn red.

That should do the trick...
