Title: [SOLVED] Weird MIDI IN Behavior?
Post by: dancloud on May 12, 2020, 03:41:52 pm

Hi,
I'm trying to use an external MIDI Keyboard connected to the KSP's MIDI In connector to record sequences on my KSP. I've tried several different MIDI keyboards, including a Keystep. When the MIDI channel of the external keyboard matches the active sequencer's channel I see the LEDs for the notes I play light up above the KSP's mini keys, but the notes are not sent out via any of the KSP's MIDI Outs, and are not recorded into the sequence.

I kind of would have expected an external MIDI keyboard to behave more like the KSP's own keyboard. Am I missing a setting? Or does what I observe make sense and I just have to adapt my usage pattern?

What is the expected behavior of a MIDI keyboard connected to MIDI IN of the KSP?

Thanks!

Dan

I am having the exact same issue.  I can set the midi channel, and it will light up on the appropriate channel, but no sound.  The manual does not go into detail.

Hi Edauard, 
Sounds like Midi Routing is not currently implemented?  MODEs like should be supported. 
None - No routing
USB In to MIDI OUT - UM
MIDI In to MIDI OUT - MM
MIDI IN to USB OUT  - MU
MIDI IN TO USB OUT + USB In to MIDI OUT - MUUM
MIDI IN to MIDI OUT + MIDI IN to USB OUT - MMMU

Is it "Assumed" that CV will also be supported?
CV IN to MIDI OUT - CM
CV IN to USB OUT - CU
MIDI IN to CV OUT - MC
USB IN to CV OUT - UV
MIDI IN to CV OUT + CV IN to MIDI OUT - MCCM
USB in TO CV OUT + CV IN to USB OUT - UCCU

Or would that be a "future, future" capability?

Gratefully.
