What do you mean, it won't record the MIDI. I don't completely understand what this particular Dxi does, but if you assign this in the synth rack, shouldn't you get one audio and one MIDI track on which you can record a performance?

It will work (read: play) with Cakewalk's VST wrapper, but you won't be able to record the midi --- for that you need a feature only DirectiXer has - midi loopback. Attached is a WMV tutorial that was made by someone that explains how to use it. I can't remember where I found this on the web, but I saved a copy. The recording was done at a small size and if you enlarge it to 200% it is very fuzzy. But you will understand how to use Groove Agent and Sonar 3. DirectiXer is much better anyway and I have uninstalled the Cakewalk VST wrapper and now only use DirectiXer - much better support as well! Hope this helps.
