Playing JD-Xi into Logic (Mac)

I have an audio interface, midi in/out cords, and the USB hookup with the correct Driver installed (and reinstalled after the recent update as well, to be on the safe side)</p> <p>Apparently all I really need is to hook up the JD-Xi with USB to my computer to send MIDI and audio (so MIDI cords unnecessary after all?). I've set the USB mode to &quot;Vendor&quot; per Roland's instructions as well. I've set my output/input sound devices to JD-Xi. When I look at tutorials on setting up hardware synths in Logic, I see them do this via an External Instrument track, where they select their device in the Midi Out setting. But I don't see my JD-Xi here and I'm wondering why?</p> <p>&#x200B;</p> <p><a href="https://preview.redd.it/orj9sgey55c81.png?width=1394&amp;format=png&amp;auto=webp&amp;s=3bd318f178cf28bf2661353a6cdbdc4766c69734">https://preview.redd.it/orj9sgey55c81.png?width=1394&amp;format=png&amp;auto=webp&amp;s=3bd318f178cf28bf2661353a6cdbdc4766c69734</a></p> <p>If anybody can help provide guidance I'd be so grateful. I'm new to hardware in DAWs and am beyond confused. It's been a month that I say &quot;this weekend, I'm figuring this out...&quot; Still... diddly squat.</p> <p>I also read that the easiest way to do this is hook up my output on JD-Xi to my interface with 1/4&quot; TRS cables. That way I can still use my studio monitors. I might try this next but for godssake I need to understand what is happening ?</p> <p>Thanks.</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/breathe-n-flow"> /u/breathe-n-flow </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/s5ptai/playing_jdxi_into_logic_mac/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/s5ptai/playing_jdxi_into_logic_mac/">[comments]</a></span> </td></tr></table>
