I use MIDIOX and Yokes..... Just adding them as devices in MIDIOx copies
the incoming data onto the outgoing Yokes.

I didn't get what you meant by that?

Go through the tutorials. Get to know the program. Get aquainted with midi and how it works.Slowly everything will fall in place!

Cheers,
Mikael

I found MIDIOX site, and it looks free, is it something I should look into from what you read about me?

Couln't find something for Yokes.

Considering that I get the feeling that you're new to MIDI and MIDI sequencing - I'd say stay away from MIDIOX and YOKES. That's powerful stuff that could route you from here to eternity.

But... It'd be simpler just to give each device it's own USB port. They'll show up in Live. And if you want to use them both to control for example Impulse or Simpler - just set the corresponding "midi from" to all in. Then you're set to go!

Cheers,
Mikael

Ah ok.. maybe in future I'll check it out

With regards to both going in with its own USB, sounds like a plan, but just quick question, in windows audio settings from control panel for the preferred midi device... Do i Put it as trigger finger, or ozone?

Thanks

Never mind the Windows settings. That has nothing to do with how things work in Live. Check out chapter 13.3 - "External MIDI In/Out" - that'll explain things.

Both the Ozone and the trigger finger can be played on one of 16 midi-channels. They have to be set up somewhere at the hardware, i don't own the ozone or trigger, so you'll have to look this up in the manual... so, let's say you set up that ozone on Midi-Channel 1 and the Trigger on Midi channel 2. All the channels where you have assigned "All Midi-Inputs" can be played with both controllers, but you're able to assign the simpler on "Midi-Channel 2" input, only. The channel know will only receive data from the trigger. Hope this helps out a little bit...

Yeah it does, thanks a lot everyone for all of your input. I am saving the whole thread offline so I can read again and stuff while im setting stuff up.

Everyone has been very helpful and I hope I can get everything to work right

pads are also very nice for playing basslines...
