I ran the installers without changing default instal paths. and the real drums should all be there
also the updater says there is an update but i can't get it work
Also in the mixer the drums are in green but piano and bass are yellow
Also my microkey air korg keyboard doesn't make any noise when i hit the keys. it is plugged in and working with garage band.
sorry for all the questions. i was so excited to play with this after the instal but i'm not getting anywhere.
Riesa

i tried to install an update to go to version 263 and a bar came across as if it was downloading but it always seemed to stall near the end. I manually located an updater file here on this website and was able to install the update. now i didn't get the realdrum unable to locate message, but all i can hear are drums.
Anyway that's my little bit of progress.

Welcome to the forum. It's helpful that you put you use a Mac in your posts, as it may make a difference.
First, when you wrote this: "Also in the mixer the drums are in green but piano and bass are yellow" it means that the drums are playing RealDrums (not MIDI) but the other instruments are playing MIDI (not RealTracks).

A screen capture is always helpful and there are instructions here on how to add that to a post, but it's not essential if you can continue to describe what you see. An alternate way is to use a free service to post the picture. When I want to post a picture, I upload it to a Public folder in Dropbox and copy the link to put in a post here.
As for hearing the other tracks, we need to know what you are using to play MIDI. Can you tell us what your Preferences, MIDI Driver, Output setting is?
