I am using Finale 2012 with Wine on Ubuntu 13.04 and I am trying to connect my keyboard through a Yamaha UX16 midi to USB cable to my computer so I can use it with Finale. When I list the usb devices in the Terminal, it picks it up, but Finale wont see it. Is there some sort of driver I'm supposed to install?
