MIDI problem with GarageBand
I am trying to control GarageBand with an old 80s Keyboard (Roland JX1) via a USB midi interface into my new generation MacBook Air with Mountain Lion (although the following problem happened on an older MacBook Pro too). I can get the GarageBand voices to play using this keyboard, but the problem is they don't cut off. AND it seems that they only play monophonically (i.e. can't do chords). Any ideas on what I can do?
I also have a Yamaha TG-100 module that I hook up to the JX-1 and wanted to know whether it was worth getting Logic Pro 9 to control them.
MacBook Air, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)
