Dave Smith Instruments SYNTHESIZERS

It looks like a channeling issue.

You need to set the ransmit/receive channels in each device to transmit/receive on a single channel rather than the default omni.

I use chan 15 for the Tetra.

If you set up a new midi multi instrument in logic within the environment and set it to the interface and channel for the tetra that works for me.

Then the default instrument can be used for the other items.
