may be different if you’re using a different version.

4

Play the A-PRO’s keyboard.

If you hear the Grand Piano sound that’s assigned to the GarageBand track, the A-PRO
is correctly connected to your computer.

If you don’t hear sound, check the following points.
• From the [GarageBand] menu, click [Preferences]. If MIDI input is not detected in

the [Audio/MIDI] tab’s “MIDI Status” field, it may be that a problem has occurred.
Please refer to “Problems with setup” in the Troubleshooting section (p. 76).

• In “System Preferences,” choose the [Sound]-[Output] tab. Make sure that your

computer’s main volume is not turned down or muted. Also make sure that internal
audio is selected.

• If you’re using headphones, make sure that they are correctly connected to your

computer’s headphone jack.

• If you have an audio interface that’s connected to your computer, refer to the

owner’s manual of your device to make sure that your audio interface is connected
correctly.

If you don’t hear sound in software other than GarageBand, you’ll need to make MIDI
and audio input/output settings. Make the following settings for MIDI input/output.
