I asked some of these questions to Yamaha support, and they told me that ASIO (Audio Signal INPUT OUTPUT) is not relevant in the scenario where the controller keyboard is sending only Midi and not audio data. If it isn’t necessary, why am I getting high latency, and why does choosing NONE lead to no sound at all. Should I be able to choose the Yamaha USB driver v3.1.4 as my Asio driver?

This driver (when installed) DOES appear in the ASIO dropdown list, however when I try to select it from the list, I get a pop error message stating: Device could not be opened. file is called Yamaha Steinberg USB Driver 2.0.4

I have also tried unistalling the above driver and installing another driver called the Yamaha Steinberg USB driver found on the Steinberg website. Turning on Asio guard seems to add more latency, so I have unchecked it. When I select the Generic Low Latency Asio Driver, it shows input latency = 20 ms and output latency = 20 ms. If I choose None, no sound comes out when I play the CP4.

Only options are ‘None’ and ‘Generic Low Latency Asio Driver’ (built into Cubase). The Yamaha USB driver does not appear as an option in the dropdown box. When I go to the Studio tab → Studio Setup → VST audio system panel, there is a dropdown box that allows selecting ASIO driver. found on the Yamaha website (it shows up as working in Control Panel → programs), however it does not appear in Device Manager (which seems odd). I have installed the ‘Yamaha USB midi driver’ version 3.1.4.

I am using The Grand piano VST and monitoring while playing.

I am trying to configure a Win10 PC running Cubase 10 to receive midi data from a Yamaha CP4 keyboard (i.e.
