MIDI Track output without external instrument

Post by mfrederickson » Sat Jun 10, 2023 8:52 pm

Hi!

I'm using a LUMI Keys (light up two octave MPE) via the Push 3 USB A port in standalone.

I want to have a MIDI track with an instance of drift, and have MIDI coming in from the LUMI over USB, but also sending that tracks MIDI out to the LUMI to light up its keys. I can do this with an external instrument device, but since the LUMI is just a controller, this is no good b/c I can't have two instruments on the same track.

How do I set up a MIDI track to route out to the LUMI without the external instrument device? Is this just not possible in standalone right now? Already looked around the manual...

Set up a 2 midi track which receives its midi input from your Drift track.
Send this midi track output to your LUMI via the track's output chooser. In theory this should work.
