2. Why am I unable to connect my keyboard?, 14 October 2013, 08:36, by Jason
The software seems promising, but the midi capability is unable to pick up my Yamaha P90 Keyboard. I’ve tried other midi software like Synthesia and it was able to pick up on my midi connection. Any ideas?
I’ve got a Windows 8 Laptop, A Yamaha P90 Digital Stage Piano and a USB to MIDI cable if that’s of any help.

Hi,
Jalmus doesn’t recognise my USB MIDI keyboard. I’m running windows 7 and Synthesia recognises it fine.
This help page for Jalmus only has a potential solution for Mac/Linux, the wiki doesn’t mention it, the mailing list appears dead and the sourceforge page for Jalmus has the forum disabled hence asking here.
