Again like audio if two tracks are set to record from the same input (in this case the four inputs identified above are effectively the same) they both will record the same data. Also like audio, to hear the track while recording, input echo must be enabled. Just like recording audio, there is no need to select a track to record just click the record button. MIDI Ch.1 accepts data from channel 1 only from the specified deviceĪFAIK, the Virtual Controller only transmits on channel 1.įYI, SI plug-ins play all notes in the instrument's range regardless of their channel assignment. MIDI Omni accepts data from all channels from the specified device Virtual Controller accepts data from the Virtual Controller only The difference between these 4 input settings areĪll Inputs accepts data from from all MIDI devices including the virtual controller Using the Virtual controller the following inputs work for both synths. I don't think the VC has a 'MIDI channel,' per se. I tried setting the MIDI input to separate channels for each of the instruments, but then the VC didn't work. If I start recording, manually entering notes, the first few beats / notes are not captured / recorded. If I shift+Click the track NUMBERS, both are selected and VC input is routed to both. If I select a track, then the virtual controller records that track.
I have to set input to each track to Mini OMNI for the virtual controller to work I am unsure of what you mean by 'check all the instrument and MIDI Track Input Assignments.'īut I created a new empty project with an eye toward learning Just Drums and Strings. Analog Instrument, never knew much about MIDI. Keep in mind when an instrument or MIDI track has input echo enabled and the input is set to None, CbB changes the input to "All Inputs - Omni" so the track has some input to echo.

Turn off Always Echo Current MIDI Track and assume manual control of input echo then double check all the instrument and MIDI track input assignments.
