Midi Packs not showing in EZKeys

[Erik Anders]

Thanks for helping me out.

I’m very new to EZKeys, so I’m sure this is a user related issue.

I purchased and dowloaded EZkeys and a few midi packs. Stupid excited to use them.

Using the Product Manager (image 1), I download and installed everything. EZKeys appears, opens and works just fine in Ableton 10 (OS 10.14.5, and using an Akia MPK49). The only issue is, that the midi packs don’t show up in EZKeys (image 2).

Again, I’m positive I’ve not completed something. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

EZkeys version: 1.2.5
Operating system: macOS Mojave (10.14)

Hi Erik
I’m new user like you.

if I have understood the problem correctly
I think you need to clic on the button “Browser” just above “tempo”. the keyboard will disappear and the midi list will appear in the principal window.

Have you looked in the browser yet?

Thanks for the reply.

I though the same thing. When I initially installed EZKeys, I was able to access that menu.
Now, that you pointed it out, it is greyed out (see image)…

Hmmm…any ideas on this? I can’t seem to find a way to activate that menu.

I got up and running with the software using the EZKeys Explained course on Groove3.

Just to clarify for other users seeing this post with similar problems:

You have to select atleast one block on the song track for the Use Browser MIDI button to be enabled, since it will replace the playstyle on the song track with the one you then select in the Browser.

Use Browser MIDI is made for having a set of chords on the song track where you can try out different MIDI from the browser 🙂
