I have been using the JV-1010 and the serial interface with Cakewalk Pro 9.0 with the switch on the back of the JV-1010 set to PC2. Everything worked fine for playing and sequencing midi files.
Ok. I just got an SL-990. I hooked up the keyboard directly to the JV-1010 to verify everything worked, and it did; after I switched the JV-1010 switch to midi.
I have a turtle bay sound card with the game port. I have a splitter cable for midi in/out and game port.
I hooked up the cable to the Turtle bay, (again, the JV-1010 switch is set to midi) ran the cable marked "in" to the SL-990 midi out, and the cable marked "out" to the JV-1010 midi in. Cakewalk will play midi files thorugh the JV-1010, but now I have no response from the keyboard. ?
Any and all help appreciated.

PS - Hey, is there a manual available for the SL-990? Mine was in a factory sealed box with one two sided page of info.
