A MIDI controller sends MIDI note messages to another device by MIDI cables or USB to a computer. If it is strictly a MIDI controller with no onboard sounds, it will have to connect to another MIDI device or computer to make sounds.

What are the setting to use a Yamaha SY22 as a midi controller on fruity loops 9?
With any MIDI controller, you first have to assign the device as a MIDI controller in the FL Studio MIDI settings and select a free channel for it to work. You may be able to select the controller type, if it is not listed, just use the generic controller. If you need the controls mapped to a certain knob or slider on the MIDI device, you will need to assign it based on what you are attempting to change, and assigning a lot of controls may be time consuming. Once you get your preferences done though, you can save the controller configuration for use in future projects. Some keyboards come with MIDI controller disks that FL Studio may be able to read, and then there are plugin information that may give you a text file based on the control ports for the plugin where you can assign them easily to your device.

These are widely available from various manufacturers at varying prices. The Mac usually recognises when a MIDI device is connected but they can be configured with the Audio & MIDI setup utility found in the Utilities folder within the Applications folder.
