Full Version: Yamaha music keyboard as midi controller
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I am trying to connect the Yamaha music keyboard PSR-e473 as a MIDI controller keyboard in Linux Lite OS. 

However, it is not showing and is undetected by my PC running LinuxLiteOS 7.8

I had checked the cable; it is working perfectly with other devices, and the keyboard is recognized by the other device as a MIDI controller. 

It will be great if any one of you can guide or share reference documentation for further troubleshooting. 

Kind Regards,
The Yamaha documentation mentions connections to windows and macos computers but not Linux.

Are any of these devices Linux ?
Have you any documentation to suggest it is Linux compatible ?

With the unit plugged in to your Linux Lite 7.8 system, open a terminal (press Ctrl, Alt and T) and run this command to show what the system can see.
Code:
lsusb -v
