Help on MIDI and Evolver (Desktop Model)

Help on MIDI and Evolver (Desktop Model)

2006-03-02 by sunkexode

Hi!

Im a new owner of an evolver (just got it today) and I got some
questions regarding MIDI and the evolver.

I got the following MIDI equipment that I use.

1 PC with 1 IN / 1 OUT.
1 Keyboard with 1 IN / 2 OUT
1 Evolver with 1 IN / 1 THRU / 1 OUT

Here's my problem, I'd like to use the master keyboard to control both
the evolver and the PC (softsynths) but I'd also like to use the
Evolver SoundEditor on my PC. Is there a way to sort this out on my
current setup or do I have to few MIDI ports?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Regards

Daniel.

Hi,

No problems there :-)

Keyboard MIDI out
--> PC MIDI in , PC MIDI out
--> Evo MIDI in

Then enable MIDI Thru  in your sequencer software. This way you will
also be able to playback recorded notes from your MIDI tracks.

There are other ways, like routing MIDI thru the Evolver, or using USB
between the PC and the keys (if you have a USB-capable keyboard of
course... I have one and it allows me to use my evo with the laptop
with no MIDI interface- cool), but I think the  first option is the
easiest, as there is no need to adjust any channels or such.

sunny days,
