Control external hardware without being in record mode

Post by tomazzzi » Wed Jul 20, 2005 1:17 pm

hi

that would be so cool if i could use my midi controlers to control & edit my external hardware without being in record mode


ie : i use my uc 33 to control my waldorf pulse & the microkorg synth to play it and i need to enable record on the midi track to do this in live, i also use cubase sx & you can use the midi controlers on the selected track without being in record mode

anyway to solve this problem ?

perhaps by adding a button that enable midi inputs .....

thx for your very nice work !!

bye

why dont you use the midi out(to the hard ware) on the controler you are controling with...you only need to use the midi into the computer for the vertual synth


why don't you try tuning the tracks monitor mode to on
then rtfm
