Do you do this:
Turn HW-Keyboard OFF & and remove power cable.
Then shut down computer -completely -Pull the plug!
Then
insert midi-conector cable (midi-to-USB-cable)
insert keyboard power-cable and turn it ON
(some lights should get lid)
THEN!
Insert pc power cable!
Start PC
start LMMS
Look for your Keyboard in menu

If there isn't a submenu under those, it means your piano isn't being seen by LMMS. Make sure it's plugged in before starting LMMS, and make sure that the OS sees it as a MIDI device.

I think the OS doesnt see it as an midi advice

I mean you can't plug it in after LMMS starts because it won't auto-update MIDI devices (yet)

Is the chromebook finding it as a midi device?

light umbra
#

where can i see that

bitter spire
#

That's if chrome is set up to allow web midi connections

Okay, MIDI keyboard detected so that means it is recognized.

good news

Then in LMMS you can try to connect the MIDI input to the track

oh sorry 😂

Try changing it to ALSA Raw-MIDI and after a restart if it comes up. If not, then try changing to Jack-MIDI.

Sorry, LMMS 🙂

Maybe LMMS just doesn't recognize the piano for some reason. 😦

If you set the interface and restarted LMMS and then it's still not coming up, not sure what else to try at the moment.
