Zoom R8 Won't Work as Audio Interface

[klausfantamusik]

Hi folks

I just started using LMMS but I can't seem to get my Zoom R8 connected. My only three options for Audio Interface were PortAudio, SDL, and Dummy. Even when I select my Zoom R8 in the Devices, I don't get any sound from the pianoroll.

Does anyone else have a Zoom R8 that can guide me through?

Thanks

That would be this piece of HW

-right
LMMS will only work with HW connected through MIDI cable. If your HW uses that, your issues may be caused by the connection sequence.
Do like this:
unplug HW & and remove power cable.
Then shut down computer -completely -Pull the plug!
Then
insert midi-conector cable
insert HW power and turn HW ON
(some lights should get lid)
Insert pc power cable!
Start PC
start LMMS
Look for your HW in menu
