Because the RealDrums and RealTracks are audio (not MIDI), they are not transmitted to an external hardware synthesizer via MIDI cables. The RealDrums/RealTracks track will still be played through your computer’s sound card (or whatever audio device is selected in Opt. | MIDI/Audio Driver Setup | Audio Settings | Drivers). You need to mix the output from the sound card with the output from your external synth. Depending on your synthesizer, you may be able to use an audio cable to connect the line-out of the sound card to the line-in of the synth. If your synth doesn’t have audio inputs, you could connect the sound card to the line-in of the mixer/amp/speaker system that you have your synth connected to. 149. The RealDrums are out of sync with the other instruments. • If you are using a DXi/VSTi synth (example, Roland VSC-DXi, ForteDXi), the RealDrums should be in perfect sync automatically. If not, check that the ‘Offset in mS’ setting in Opt. | Preferences | Audio is set to 0. • Down
