You have to have a DAW(digital audio workstation) or a standalone audio program/ midi device that will allow you to access the midi sound bank within the dm lite module. the output channel on the dm light should always be on channel 10.

You can use midi to USB to hook up to your comp, then add extra triggers to the computer through other means. Am easy way is to use an old Rock Band drumset, already USB. Not great pads but good for specialty hours like cow Bell. The Roland pads are zone and velocity sensitive so you can assign multiple sounds to one. A few of the presets on the kit use this, if you hit the ride cymbal hard it triggers a splash.

I believe it can be. I know for a fact that you can use multiple of them at once but you might have to connect them separately via USB. However they have Midi in and out, so it may be possible through that!

you can play midi files from a usb flash, but they have to be midi format 0, you can load midi format 1 files and write them to one of the internal songs and then play them

It does not have standard MIDI connectors. It has a USB port - with the supplied MIDI drivers it shows up as "USB MIDI" in software like Cakewalk.

I'm sorry I can't answer that question. I couldn't get the midi interface to work with my computer.

It has no onboard sounds, so you will have to run it through a midi sound module or a computer to use it live. It has both midi and USB outs.

I don't know, bro. I only use this MIDI Interface with my laptop and keyboard. I had never tried any other device.

I've had mi Tascam long enough I don't readily remember, but my guess would be that it doesn't come with a MIDI cable. Besides, if you're going to run MIDI with it, you'll need TWO cables - one for MIDI in and another for MIDI out.

Fist, download user guide PDF from Google. U can use a usb hub (make sure it uses a power supply) to extend the inputs to PC. Use the accompanying "ignite" software to integrate with your DAW.

From what I understand, you can attach as many as you have free USB ports (not into a USB hub but straight in to computer) or up to 2 additional via the midi ports on the units themselves.

You can connect this unit to your computer using the USB cable - it'll function as a MIDI controller for your favorite computer software to get even more functionality

No this is a midi controller. If you were to map a sample to a VST sampler, Reasons Kong, for example you could. It however stores no local sample data. You cant get away that cheap dog :(

Did you find one? We are in the same dilemma. We purchased Finale Songwriter for our son, but am afraid it will be useless without a midi cable that works with Windows 7, 64 bit. Grr.

it's a hardware sampler, meaning it doesn't use midi to control any sounds, it has it's own sounds. you could record into reason (or any DAW, I use Fl) using an interface.

Yes. Polyphony depends on the software you're using, however the LaunchKey is capable of sending multiple MIDI messages simultaneously.
