Hi, I just bought a Nektar Impact LX88+ and I don't know how to set up, so bitwig will work with synthesia, I've googled but I haven't found anything. I don't want to use the built in piano sound, I have downloaded a soundfont piano as well, but the piano on bitwig sound so much better, so I'd love to be able to set that up, help appreciated!

Synthesia with DAW?
When describing problems, always mention your OS and game version (shown at the bottom of the title screen).
If your keyboard has USB or MIDI ports, there is a tremendously high chance (>99%) it will work with Synthesia. See what you'll need on the keyboards page.

In Synthesia, go to Settings. Find LoopBe1 in the "Music Output" list. Enable it for everything.Nicholas wrote:Just tell Synthesia to output to the virtual driver. And then just have your DAW read input from the same source.
In Bitwig, find the MIDI input options and enable LoopBe1 there.
This is where it will start to depend a little on your exact setup (which DAW, which plugins, etc.), but if I had to guess, you may need to map more MIDI channels to your instruments.
On the screen just before the song plays in Synthesia, choose the "Hands, Colors, and Instruments" button. On that screen, you should see several boxes representing the parts in the song. There should be a channel number listed for each one. Make sure your DAW is handling input from things on those channels.
