So, here’s a little tid-bit that might save someone a bit of head scratching:
I’ve been trying to control some MIDI hardware from my M-Audio MidAir 37 for a while now. I was hooked in to the computer, and power, via USB. Running a standard MIDI cable out of the wireless tranceiver (which happens to be runnng through an eMagic Unitor 
wasn’t passing the input from the wireless keyboard out to the hardware. Read more
Well, I’m getting pretty well familiar with Logic, (what a nice program!) and, I’m getting more and more familiar with the EMX. Now, if I could just figure the MIDI linkage between the two. I can get the Midi data from the EMX to record, but I’m having a devil of a time getting the drum parts to come into one track and a synth part to come into another… Here’s what I have going:
I have two tracks set up in Logic, both are “External MIDI Instrument” type.
Both are set to MIDI Port 2, which is the port my EMX is on.
Track 1 is set to Channel 1, as I’m hoping to capture my 1st synth part to that track
Track 2 is set to MIDI Channel 10, as I’m hoping to capture my Drums to that (which I’d later separate to individual tracks by tone, a nice feature of Logic)
Oddly, it seems to capture both the Synth and the Drums to both tracks… I’m going to keep digging, but wondered if someone knew an obvious thing I’m missing, like “oh, you gotta go into MIDI prefs and turn off yatayata”…
anyone been down this road before?
Uh, mainly a showcase of what I’m up to, but to fill the gaps I may comment from time to time on why modern music sucks so bad, what’s wrong with modern culture and generally lash out about other topics I’m probably ill prepared to add commentary on
