How to disregard usb keyboard

Hi to all,
I would like to know how to tell GB to ignore my usb keyboard.
I have a Arturia Keyboard (Analog Experience The Laboratory) hooked up to my MBPro via USB.
Another USB port on the MBPro goes to my mixer.
Here's the problem:
When I play the keyboard, I am getting my keyboard sounds but the keyboard is also triggering whatever instrument is selected in GB simultaneously. Therefore when I play some of the lower keys, If the drum kit is selected, I get my keyboard sound as well as a drum kick or snare!
Here's the question:
How do I get GB to ignore my USB keyboard and act on it's own while still being able to play my keyboard through the computer?
As far as settings go, it says one midi device detected. Maybe that's the mixer?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Dean

How can I use a USB keyboard with my Macbook Pro?

My MBP will not recognize my brand new USB keyboard.
I have tried the keyboard on two other Macbook Air's and it works perfectly.
My MBP:
OS X Yosemite
10.10.1
Macbook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013)
2.4 GHz Core i5
8GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Mac HD
Graphics Intel Iris 1536 MB
Thoughts on how I can resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Greg

Brenden,
Thanks for the reply.
I've gone your suggestions in detail and the keyboard is still not working.
From what I can tell this is a known issue with Yosemite.

Someone at Apple must be able to figure this one out.

IBM USB keyboard with TrackPoint: how to adjust sensitivity

I connect the IBM USB keyboard with TrackPoint (UltraNav) to my Lenovo W510 using Windows 7. How can I adjust the sensitivity of the external TrackPoint? In control panel > mouse settings, I can only adjust settings of the onboard TrackPoint. Is this a driver issue, or I did it wrong? I tried downloading different drivers but none allows me that. Current drivers I use:
ThinkPad USB Keyboard with TrackPoint v1.06 (tpusbkybdwtrackpoint_106.exe)
ThinkPad USB Keyboard Hotkeys v2.0.1.3 (q5kyb07us13.exe)
ThinkPad UltraNav Driver v15.1.19.0 (6hgy31ww.exe (64-bit))
Actually tried newer drivers but the results are the same. Thanks for any suggestion!

after installing the required Lenovo driver explained in the post above. I get this option in my mouse setting under control panel.
Do you see this specific option? (there is new 1.07 driver released, so try to install that and see whether give you the option of adjusting the usb kb's trackpoint sensitivity).

My external Apple USB Keyboard letters doesn't work, but the numbers do. Why and how can I fix this issue?

My external Apple USB Keyboard letters doesn't work, but the numbers do. Why and how can I fix this issue? Also, When I open the Keyboard Viewer, the letters will highlight only if I hold the modifier key(s) "Control" or "Control and Option". I really need help with this. I don't have any other computer to try it on, so I will have to test it on a friends computer sometime. But perhaps solutions that I can try right now? Thanks.

How can you get the keypad on a USB keyboard to work in Excel

Hi Michael-
I do not have any problem with using shift registers in timed loops. What version of LabVIEW are you using? Can you please elaborate on why neither shift registers or local variables meet your needs? I have attached a VI that saves a previous iteration and then computes and displays the difference. Let me know if you have problems running it.
Thanks-

How can I re-recognize a misconfigurated usb keyboard?

I got a new USB Keyboard for my Macbook pro for work. I connected and the sistem asked me to press the key next to the left shif key, instead of pressin the "<" key, I press the "z" key next to it (this is so embarrasing ).
I took the keyboard home and connected it to my personal Macbook pro where I press the correct key and there was no problem.
How can I fix this? How can I re-recognize the keyboard... I'm a front-end designer and no having the "<" key where it should be is really frustrating.
Thanks In Advanced...

How to fix mix of buttons on USB keyboard?

Hi
Today I experienced a non-serious, but annoying error with my USB-keyboard.
There's two buttons mixed up; ' and <, so whenever I press <, my mac types ' and vice versa.
The problem is not present at the keyboard on my macbook, but on every USB keyboard I try to connect.
Any ideas for a fix?

> I have a number key that "sticks".
> Seems as if the spring is no longer working.
> Does anyone know of a way to fix this without having to purchase a new keyboard?
I think you will need new keyboard because its not possible to replace the single buttons
You can remove the single key caps but you can not remove the button
Im afraid; you will need to purchase a new keyboard and then could replace this
The keyboard replacement is not really tricky. Two screws secure the keyboard.
Both screws are hidden under the thin plastic cover above the F1-F12 button row
If you would remove the plastic cover and the both screw then you would be able to lift out the keyboard but be careful, the keyboard is connected to the motherboard with an flat cable

How to boot to emergency.target and have a functional USB keyboard?

I appending systemd.unit=emergency.target to my kernel line in GRUB while booting so I could manually do an e2fsck. I was unable to enter my password; my USB keyboard was not activate. Seems like systemd didn't load a module or something. Thoughts?

Good observation.

hid 85641 3 hid_generic,hid_microsoft,usbhid

I will add these 4 and see if it works.

How do you wake up a USB Keyboard plugged into MBP after it goes to sleep?

Hello folks!
I have a full sized USB (PC) Keyboard (Creative Spectre) plugged into my macbook pro for gaming and the use of the numeric keypad (which I honestly didn't realize I used that much until I didn't have one)...
Anyway... when I first plug it in, everything is fine, but after the computer sits for a while and goes to sleep mode, I come back and have to wake it up.
The funny thing is I can punch spacebar on the USB keyboard to wake up the macbook, but after that no other input is functioning. I have to unplug it and replug it back in for the keyboard to work again.
Thanks in advance!

Apparently not all usb keyboards are reliable for use on an MBP.
Some posts suggest that those with extra proprietary functions may cause problems. One post suggests that MS usb keyboards operate more reliably than Logitech. Another post suggests that connecting a usb keyboard through a usb hub can cause a problem. These posts all relate to non-Apple usb keyboards.
It would be wise to check with the manufacturer's website whether or not they rate their keyboard fully compatible with a Mac.
The issues seem to be software related as regards the keyboard's firmware/drivers.
Hope this gives some checks for you re compatibility.

MacBook Air 11-inch, Mid 2013 won't boot with external USB keyboard

Hello,
Just bought a MacBook Air 11-inch, Mid 2013 (8GB, i7, 512GB SSD) today.
All available software updates are installed (OS X 10.8.4 (12E3067)).
Also have a Macbook Pro Retina.
If I connect a external USB keyboard (Kinesis Advantage Pro USB) to the Air then it don't boots.
If the keyboard is connected directly to the Air USB port then it don't shows the Apple logo on grey background after power on, just give a endless loop of the turning on sound.
If the keyboard is connected to the Thunderbolt display then same empthy grey screen after power on and no sound at all.
The same keyboard and Thunderbolt display work well with my Macbook Pro Retina and a Macbook Air 2011.
Any ideas ?
Thanks,
Karsten

I like it very much. I use it on my iPad (and occasionally my iPhone). I'm kind of a keyboard snob actually. I tried the Apple wireless keyboard first. Apple keyboards have a short throw that hurts the tips of my fingers. They're very pretty but the on button turns on when I don't want it to and my iPad wakes up in my bag. Strike 1.
I went to a little keyboard called the Joy and it had a positive switch so I didn't have the wakeup problem. It worked well though after several months I wore it out and had to replace it with another one. I also didn't like how flat it sat and used rubber bumpers on the back. It too had a short throw that hurt my finger tips after a while but it was better than the Apple.
Then I discovered the Logitech bluetooth keyboard, the K811. This is a great keyboard. It switches between multiple targets with one press, it has a positive on/off switch, the keys light up, it's rechargeable and lasts a long time, and the slight cushioning on the keys keeps my fingers from hurting. I put the rubber bumpers on it though like the Joy because I like the keyboard to sit up a little. It's a tiny bit bigger than the other keyboards but I like it a lot, better than my MBA keyboard and better than my iMac wired keyboard. I'm trying out an after market keyboard on the iMac now but I'm thinking about switching to one of these for the iMac.
