Default [UNSOLVED] I can't get my Virus A to work with my Electribe

I just bought the Virus and have read the manual but I can't get the korg to work with the Virus AT ALL. I have a midi to midi to USB cable, and I know they need to be on the same midi channel but I can't get it working and I've tried everything I can think of. The only sound I have got from the virus is the demo song... now my limited understanding is the sampler should be able to send sounds to the virus and then I can manipulate them. (am I wrong??) do I need a midi keyboard instead?? Please help me as I've wanted a virus for ages and now that I've got one, it's very frustrating not being able to use it!!!!!

Not sure what you are trying to do but here´s a short guide that might help:

To play the Virus you need to send MIDI note information to the Virus (via a MIDI cable from MIDI out of a sequenser/keyboard to MIDI in on your Virus).

To manipulate sounds from a sampler with the Virus filters, vocoder and/or effects you need an audio cable from you sampler to the Virus audio input and you need to make sure that the input is turned on (if you want to use the vocoder this has to be turned on as well as the input)...

I first tried playing a sample from my sampler/sequencer into the virus via midi cable, then I tried to play it through the external input with the input and the vocoder on... I still get nothing! not a sound! My sampler woks fine and I think my virus is working 'cause it plays the demo song fine. My midi cable might be broken, but it should work going through the ext. input...
