USB midi from sc6000

Hi, I’m trying to get a midi out signal from the SC600 so I can hook up a drum machine to my DJ set. I’m using Play 1.4 mixer so no USB or midi from that. The sc6000 manual says you can get mid out over the USB, but I’m struggling to get it to work. I’ve tried directly connecting the USB out of the sc6000 to the USB of the drum machine - no dice. I’ve just tried a powered USB midi host but also no dice, the USB host does not seem to be receiving a midi signal over USB from the sc6000. Has anyone got something like this to work at all or any tips / ideas to try. Much appreciated.

I’ve just had a look at the manual, and it says that the USB B port sends and receives MIDI to/from the computer. That would only be when the unit is in controller mode.

Like the other Prime devices, when it’s in standalone mode, the USB B connection does nothing.

Use Ableton Link.
