I'm new to Logic Pro X and I have a newb question. I created an external MIDI track (#3) and made a recording from the attached keyboard, but I don't hear anything in Logic, why? I have another track that's audio (#2) which I can hear. Please see attached image.

EDIT: Here is a screenshot of the Library panel. Not sure why "Off" is the name of the MIDI device.

    I think an external MIDI track is meant to send MIDI messages to something outside your computer that can generate sound. Do you have an external synthesizer or keyboard hooked up? If you want Logic to generate sound from MIDI messages, that's a "virtual instrument" track, not an external MIDI track. – Todd Wilcox Mar 28 at 13:58
  • There is no virtual instrument track. There is "software instrument", "external MIDI", "audio", "guitar or bass", and "drummer". Using "software instrument" also produces no sound. I also don't hear piano roll, maybe that's related? – andrewz Mar 28 at 14:03
  • Have you set the correct audio output? – Shevliaskovic Mar 28 at 16:31
  • Yes ........... – andrewz Mar 29 at 16:40
