Here is my situation:

1) I am a complete idiot.
2) I have cheap ass equipment.
3) I can't get my cheap ass equipment to work.


I have a copy of Cakewalk 8.0 and a Yamaha PSR-630 keyboard. I can play midi files without the keyboard until the cows come home, but.... All I want to do is be able to play the keyboard and record it. I have purchased the midi cable to plug into my Diamond Monster Sound card. Everything seems to be hooked up right, but I cannot get any sound from the keyboard, nor can I play a midi file through the keyboard. I have selected the MIDI-in port in the audio setup that the keyboard is plugged in to. Not really sure what else I should look for. In case you haven't guessed I don't have the cakewalk manual.
Some more stupid questions include:

1) Can the sounds on the keyboard be used to play midi files on the computer? In other words, when I play a midi file, I want to hear it with the keyboard's sounds instead of the built in sound card sounds. If so ... how?!
2) I think part of my problem might be channel and/or port settings. Possibly source settings as well. Suggestions?
3) Can I play on the keyboard with the volume off and still get sound from the PC?
4) I'm also seeing a lot of talk about tutorials in cakewalk. Where are they?


Thanks for your patience!
