We just purchased the Rhythmx Electronic Drum Kit by Ashton, and want to use it as midi input into Sibelius 7.5.

Right now, all that is registering is the same note over and over again, on the quarter beat.. not corresponding to the timing, duration or drum/cymbol that are actually being played.

Can someone tell me how to setup the midi interface into Sibelius. Shouldn't it just be 'plug and play'?

Thanks.

As I understand it (no expert on input devices) you probably need to open Audio Options and select your drum kit. If your kit is not recognized, then you may have a driver issue. I know it's new, but there may already be updated drivers ( oh, like only one note playing on some systems). The manual should be able to help, also. What OS?

You haven't got it set to output only a quarter note click track via MIDI, have you?
