Ableton Live & Microkorg help

Post by thomas elder » Mon Mar 08, 2010 7:25 pm

Hi everybody.
is it possible to send midi note from a midi track in ableton to a microkorg?!
i would like to use my mk just like a normal a vst in a midi track so i will be able to design perfect note using mk sounds.
Thank you all

Definitely works, MIDI cables between the IN/OUT of your interface and the MK, you can play the riff from the MK into a MIDI track then edit it and send it back to the MK.. works nicely, I've done it to sync the MK arpeggios, altho they don't always start on the right downbeat or whatever but it's useable..

Dumb question, but are you setting up the I-O right in the midi prefs?
