I try to send midi to external devices (ableton or bitbox)
#1
Hello, I have the multi-io expander, and I try to figure out to send midi data to external device as ableton (midi device) or bitbox micro (trs cable).
Nerdseq midi is recognized in ableton but I don't succeed to send notes.
I configured track01 as I2C/mult and track 02 as MIDI Chan:1 trs.
Do I use the mapping section ?.
How I can tell to ableton that I play notes or trigs ?
Sorry I looked in the forum but...
Thanks by advance

as soon as I posted the message I found the solution : when you SET the TRACK as MIDI, go on the track SHIFT+NERD -> Track Setup -> Base Midi Channel -> DEVICE #1

Hehe yes, you got 3 independend Midi Ports, TRS which are the 2 minijacks, Host which is the upper USB port (to connect a launchpad or a midi keyboard for example), and the Device in the middle which creates a Midi port in your computer.
Best is to use a Midi tracktype for notes and if you want the drummatrix then the I2C/Multi track is the one you need.

And you can get also fast to the track setup by pressing the patch button twice.

Cheers, Happy tracking!

Smile Thank you mcfrsvn .... I spent an hour trying to figure this out. By default my MIDI track was going to TRS-1, had forgotten about SHIFT+NERD.

Added to my notes and have been working on a markdown cheat sheet which I hope to get on the web. Not is if there is one, but figured I would get one together myself.

Its just the track setup and you don’t need to navigate there by the Nerd Menu.
Just press Patch twice.

There is a cheat sheet in the manual.
