Casio Px-320 Usb Driver Mac
I bought my Casio Privia PX-320 keyboard several years ago and one of the goals was to use it as a controller - but I have been frustrated because of MIDI+USB driver issues related to my Lenovo laptop; and apparently there are issues in using this with my new iPad. does anyone have suggestions? Thanks much. On Keyboard Forums, someonw wrote: Connecting a Casio keyboard to an iPad requires one of the newer keyboards produced in the last 12 to 18 months or so.That is to say, the keyboard must be a Class Compliant or Core MIDI (Apple) compatible device that DOES NOT REQUIRE a device specific Operating System Driver. I heard of problems with the Ipad 1 with keyboard controllers but not the new ones.

I borrowed this from a recent post by Scott Hamlin to me to see if the issue is in your laptop: Go to your device manager Double click on Universal Serial Bus Controller to expand Find USB Root Hub (there may be more than one) Right click and select properties Click the power management tab (you may have to go to 'change settings') Unselect 'Allow the computer to turn of this device to save power' Click OK Repeat with any other USB Root Hubs listed Hope it helps Bob. Hi guys, I did some research. The PX-320 is much older than the WK-7500 and was made before Casio changed to the class compliant system.
It requires a driver and unfortunately no Casio driver supports Apple products. The PX-320 was originally bundled with a CD that contained a driver. That driver only supported these OS: Windows® 98 / 98SE / Me / 2000 Professional / XP Home Edition / XP Professional. For more info check this page. What OS is running on your Lenovo? There are newer drivers available for newer versions of Windows here. Thanks for all the info, the Lenovo is running Windows 7 and last time I checked with Casio - well over a year I think - they did not have a driver for this.
I think the problem was the drivers they did have were for 16 bit operating systems and MS Windows 7 is 32 bit. I am kind of assuming that I am SOL for this and for iPad but will check back and see if they have updated drivers for these OSes. Guess the next bet is to get a cheap controller and just use the 320 for the canned voices it comes with. Bob I posted the info about Class Compliance and Core MIDI Compatibility in response to the post you made there regarding this issue.
I have since posted the following info over there. Apparently you have not seen it there, so I will repost it here: So far, all of the manuals I have checked for the Casio units, that I know for certain, are iPad compatible, make no reference to downloading and installing any USB-MIDI drivers, as they are not needed.
Those units are compatible with the generic drivers that have been built-in to MAC-OS for the last several versions and Windows since XP Service Pack 2. Sadly, for you, the PX-320 manual gives instructions on Pages 38 and 39 for downloading and installing USB-MIDI drivers. This would indicate that the PX-320, for some reason, is NOT compatible with the generic 'built-in' drivers, and therefore is NOT 'fully class compliant' and in turn, is NOT iPad compatible (iOS uses the same built-in generic driver as MAC-OS).
However, there should be no reason that you can not get the PX-320 to work with your Lenovo. If you are having driver installation issues, you are most likely running into 32-bit vs 64-bit issues. Check the operating system on your Lenovo to see if it is 32 or 64 bit and make certain you are downloading the correct driver (32 or 64 bit) as well as for the correct version of Windows. The bit depth of the drivers MUST match the bit depth of the operating systems. You can not 'run' drivers in Compatibility Mode.
You can download drivers from: Most Casio keyboards require you to switch manually between 5-pin DIN MIDI mode and USB mode, but the PX-320 switches automatically to USB mode when you connect to a PC running the correct drivers. Page 39 of the manual explains how to check this. Best of luck with this!
Thanks so much for the Casio PX-120/Mac answers. Very helpful. I have another question which may not belong in this forum but I can't see where else it would go. Recording the sound signal from the Casio PX-120 into the Mac, what kind of file size would be generated? I realize this may vary with sample rate and/or other factors, but let's say a half-hour or hour of continuous music. Is there a way to predict this? I would probably save directly to external HD, and then at times burn to CD.
