Re: 2 Modules.

2004-04-30 by zapaxe

Hi there,

I'm only just learning midi myself, and I have no idea on what kind 
of justice you'd have by hooking/linking two modules together via 
midi. 
But if it DOES do justice, you can always hook the 2nd module to 
your PC with a 'TO HOST' cable. (I bought mine I think from 
musiciansfriend.com) I use a TO HOST cable instead of standard midi 
cables to link my DTXpress I kit to my Cubase based PC DAW. Works 
great, and it's less confusing than using two midi in/out cables 
during hook-ups.

Of course you could always use the two units 
as 'separate'instruments via midi in/out on each and/or TO HOST as 
well as separate audio connections. This depending on your audio 
card's audio in/outs, 'current' midi in/out capability. I don't see 
why you can't achine everything you need to do in one of these 
ways...?

Since I have 8 audio in/outs, 1 digital in/out, and 1 midi in/out on 
my Aardvark Q10 audio card. I hook my Alesis keyboard/synth via my 
only midi connection and my DTXpress kit via the TO HOST connection.
