Hello everyone!
Let me start off by saying I work in FL Studio and am relatively new to it since I worked in Cubase 10 years ago.
I was using the trial mode of Serato and it didn't take me long to decide I would purchase it.

I went on vacation and came back and purchased Serato. But FL Studio (or your program) no longer uses the keyboard OR my MIDI keyboard to play the samples when made as hot keys or when using the "find samples" button.
I cannot compile or play sound unless I click it with my mouse. I can't figure out why I was able to use my laptop keyboard and the MIDI keyboard and now I can't use either... causing my sampling to halt.
Is there some step or shortcut key I am missing? Did I accidentally disable a feature?
Here is a picture of my setup in FL, if it helps. But again, I cannot use the shortcut keys to play the sounds. This has had me stuck for a couple weeks at least.

I have uninstalled both programs but nothing seemed to change it back.
