Using usb as midi in?

Hello. I'm curious whats the best way is to send MIDI out of Logic to an external synth. I think I have what I need, I'm just not using it right.
I have an axiom49 connected to my g5 via the USB cable. That's how I send and track midi to logics instruments.
I also have an external midi synth, the Roland JP 8080 which I'd like to receive midi performances from logic as well and track the audio from it into Logic. So in addition to the USB cable going to the G5, I also have a MIDI cable from the Axiom's MIDI OUT to the Rolands MIDI IN. I also have the audio outs of the Roland running into 2 record enabled logic audio tracks.
I can hear audio from the roland when I play the keyboard but any midi that I try to send out from logic (a midi region that's already been recorded for example) doesn't make it to the Roland.
What's the best way to send MIDI out of logic to my Roland synth via the Axiom 49? I'm sure lots has to do with the way I'm setting up my MIDI tracks any their destinations, etc...
Thanks

Maybe I'm being to vague or not asking the question right. I'll try again.
How do I set up midi tracks in Logic to send midi out, through my USB cable that's pluged into my MIDI keyboard (my M-Audio Axiom49)? Once I do that, I want to plug the MIDI OUT of the Axiom to my Roland's MIDI IN external synth so I can record some audio from it using MIDI from Logic as the trigger.
Anybody? I've done it before with my MidiSport 2x2 midi interface but I don't want to use it anymore If I can get MIDI to go out from logic to my Axiom keyboard via my USB cable I'll be happy!
Thanks
If your Axiom has MIDI THRU it will work. Otherwise your back to using the MidiSport 2x2.
Cheers

Mid-2012 MBP with 27" Cinema Display SCREEN GOES BLACK WHEN USING USB PERIPHERALS IN DOCK

I haven't been able to find any straightforward answer as to why this is happening and it's becoming one of the most infuriating things in my life, impeding my workflow and costing me unmeasurable time in waiting, rebooting, screwing with cables, etc.
I use my MBP as a DAW for multitracking live audio events to ProTools through a digital console where I work. Here's my gear list that I use every day:
Mid-2012 MBP - Yosemite, 8GB, i7 quad 2.5, mechanical hd
HengeDocks dock for my exact model machine - has set-screw jacks for CinemaDisplay power, Tbolt, FW800, USB, USB, SDcard, headphones, etc
USB wired keyboard
Anker 1x4 USB3.0 hub - I have a TimeMachine 1TB drive, 3TB project backup drive, audio interface and MIDI I/O or PT iLok, depending what I'm working on
Magic Mouse (BlueTooth)
Here's what's happening:
SCENARIO 1 - I insert the CinemaDisplay (cD) power connector and TBolt plugs into the dock, tighten the set screws, close the lid of my MBP (already logged into Yosemite & linked with MagicMouse [mM]) and stick the MBP into the dock... everything comes up on the cD and I can go about my day. At this point, I can plug the USB hub into the back of the cD and the system sees the hub & all peripherals listed just fine.
SCENARIO 2 - Install cD powercon, TBolt connector, USB3 hub, USB keyboard into the dock, close the lid on MBP (again, logged in), insert into dock... cD comes up, looks great for about 15 seconds then goes completely blank. No response from key presses, mouse clicks, threats with a hammer, etc. Then, of course, I have to yank the MBP out of the dock, which hard-disconnects the external drives (backup and TimeMachine... good for them, right?) and causes the MBP to flake, thinking it's still in the dock, then not, then logging me out & requiring a password (not a big deal- I deal with copyrighted stuff, so passwords aren't the issue).
***EVEN IF I DO NOT PLUG THE USB3 HUB INTO THE HENGE DOCK, THE cD STILL GOES BLANK AFTER 15 SEC... IT ONLY SEEMS TO LIKE THE TBOLT AND POWER... NO OTHER PERIPHERALS (fw800, USB, etc)***
It seems like the MBP freaks out when the lid is closed and there are USB/FW peripherals plugged in while using a secondary TBolt display as the main output... seems stupid... if I need a closed-lid dock, the MBP shouldn't care what I have plugged in while the lid is closed. I had the same issues with Mountain Lion & Mavericks and now it's being repeated with Yosemite.
My goal in this exercise is simply to free up the USB jacks on the back of the cD for two reasons - #1) from time to time, I have extra things to plug in and I don't want some massive USB 1x8 hub on my desk... looks stupid; #2) the bottleneck created by plugging in the hub to the back of the cD (another hub via TBolt) almost triples the time required to back up/copy files. I move files from system drive to backup drive & back VERY often due to the nature of my job... speeding up this process would greatly improve my efficiency in the matter. Why would Henge create a dock with all the jacks on it to allow someone to plug into a cD that won't frickin work with said cD? Every other dock I've found makes the user stick the MBP on a slanted, goofy-looking stand and have the lid open or something dumb like that... what I have is the setup I need... just need the USB stuff to work while lid is closed and everything from powercon & cD to USB3 hubs will work without making the cD freak out.
Any ideas out there?

Have now taken the 27" display into the repair shop and after 24 hrs got the phone call - "appears to be nothing wrong with it, will check again on Tuesday and let you know".
I can't seem to find anything on the net describing a similar problem. Everything is working fine right now with the Mac Pro connected to the older 20 inch Cinema Display. In fact, everything seems to be working about a second faster.
I was told by the local retailer that Apple no longer makes the 27 inch LED Cinema Display product and the new display, the "Thunderbolt" will not work with my 13 month old Mac Pro.
***??? In 20 years of owning Mac equipment, this is my first major "uh-oh".

Install Windows 7 on a Mid 2010 Mac mini using USB or SD media?

Is is possible to install Windows 7 on a Mid 2010 Mac mini using USB or SD media? I have not figured this out. Here's what I have observed:
I can install OS X Lion using USB or SD media. Both are detected in the boot menu, and will boot.
An SD card with Windows 7 installation files formatted MBR/FAT32 using diskpart appears (with an SD card icon) in the boot menu but when selected as a boot device, the boot fails and the existing OS X instance on the Macintosh HD starts. A USB stick formatted as described does not appear in th boot menu at all.
An SD card or a USB stick formatted as described will boot on a Mid 2011 MacBook Air, and can be used to install Windows 7.
Is this due to EFI differences between a Mid 2010 Mac mini and a Mid 2011 MacBook Air?
Thanks.

The Mac Mini Mid 2010 has a DVD player built in, you can startup and install from a Windows 7 DVD. The Mac Mini Mid 2011 does not have a DVD player built in. I am happy that in new computers I can make use of an USB-stick to install Windows 7. Windows 7 uses MBR and Mac OS X uses EFI and that is why it was not possible on a Mac Mini Mid 2010. I think the EFI on a Mac Mini Mid 2011 is different.
I should like a firmware update on my Mac Mini Mid 2010 if possible. In that case I could choose between DVD or USB stick if I want to install Windows 7.
I also have a FireWire CF Card Reader. I think it is not possible to install Windows 7 via FireWire too.
I do have an external USB HD with 2 partitions: Mac OS X 10.6.8 and Windows 7, but is is not possible to start up Windows 7 from the external HD. It is possible to start up Mac OS X 10.6.8 from the external HD on a Mac Mini Mid 2010.

Does Mackie Control work with Final Cut 7 when using USB MIDI?

I have a Mackie Control Universal Pro connected via USB to my mac and it works GREAT with Logic and all the complimentary Logic Studio software.
The problem I am having is, when I try to use it with Final Cut, it wont work at all. I have read the post concerning this that was answered by Andy Mees but, I dont use a true MIDI connection, only USB.
Any thoughts?

Adding a sound module using a second midi interface

In the arrange window, clicking and holding on an instrument icon produces a pull down menu which includes "MIDI instr" with a submenu displaying the three external midi instruments that are connected via USB and a 4X4 midi interface. We also use a 4th. midi sound module connected via a second USB cable directly to the computer. PROBLEM: The 4th. module does not appear in the submenu along with the other three instruments. It does appear as a selectable "Port" in the track information box on the far left side of the arrange window and when selected it does recieve midi data from Logic. Unfortunately, selecting it there also changes the port that one of the other three instruments is assigned to. I believe if I can get it to show in the submenu list with the other three it will solve our prolem.

In case Jos's assistance doesn't resolve it, maybe this will: Using the example you gave
for example: "c:\my file system"--->"first_sub_directory"--->second_sub_directory--->"HelloWorld.java"
and assuming that you aren't using a "package ..." statement in HelloWorld.java, and also assuming that the HelloWorld.class file is in second_sub_directory , then you need to mount second_sub_directory in the Explorer. You always mount the parent of the class - or if a package is specified, the parent of the package.

That is definitely odd, grantcool. Let's help restore this important data transfer feature. To confirm, when you connect the USB cable to your phone and computer > Pull down the Notification Bar > Select USB Connected > Can you choose Media Sync (MTP) ?

Using USB instead of TCP

HI All,
Recently, I have been using PXI for realtime data acquisition. I'm presently using PXI-8175 and find that there are USB ports available. What exactly are these ports for?
I am just wondering, if I can use USB for transfer of data from Labview to PXI instead of using TCP which would support high data transfer rate.
Can someone shed some light on this?
Aravind

I want to make sure to clarify this point. USB is a serial
communication method talking to many devices which has an inherent
large amount of jitter and communication overhead. Doing USB communication
adds to the jitter of the system which is a bad thing for RT systems. This is the
reason we recommend using TCP/IP for your RT communication.
As to your question of why we have the USB ports on the controller, they are used for the Windows variants of our PXI embedded controllers. You'll notice that most of our PXI controller offerings have both a Windows XP and LabVIEW RT variant.
Hope this helps,
-Adam
