One MIDI track to two outputs?
in [Cakewalk]

From: Nil on 7 Feb 2010 14:53 Can Sonar send one MIDI track to multiple outputs? Or can I pass the MIDI input of one virtual instrument on through to another virtual instrument, kinda like the MIDI THRU jack on a hardware synth? I want to do this every once in a while in order to layer instruments. I always give up, though, and just duplicate the track, but that's not the most elegant solution. Seems like it should be possible, but heck if I can see how it would be done.

From: Steve_Karl on 7 Feb 2010 15:02 No But the fix is to just clone the track to as many as you need and then just change the outs to the channes you want. sk "Nil" <rednoise(a)REMOVETHIScomcast.net> wrote in message news:Xns9D189784DF624nilch1(a)130.133.4.11... > Can Sonar send one MIDI track to multiple outputs?

From: D.J.B on 7 Feb 2010 15:15 Well - at the risk of becoming a MusicLab Rep.. MusicLab Free Software http://www.musiclab.com/downloads/free/ MIDI Connection Center 1.1 (Free) "Simple MIDI Connection Center Utility makes MIDI THRU connections without any additional sequencer software like Cakewalk, Cubase, etc. having Thru built-in features. Using the utility you could play MIDI keyboard connected to your PC via MIDI IN port through internal synthesizers or external tone generators connected via MIDI OUT ports. That's because the utility allows you to simply connect any MIDI input device to any MIDI output one. It means that every MIDI event received from MIDI Input device you've chosen will be forward to some MIDI Output device has been connected with. " Then there's this... http://nerds.de/en/loopbe1.html (Free) Hope this helps...

That's what I've been doing, but I wish I could avoid that. All those duplicate tracks are really only one part - I'm just trying to layer the sounds. And that means I have to edit all those tracks separately if I want to change a note. It gets complicated and visually cluttered. |
