Using the scenario above, but substituting a single output MIDI interface with a four-output MIDI interface-connected from MIDI Out ports A, B, C, and D-to the respective MIDI In ports of each device. MIDI, as you can see from the example, can be separated onto 16 different channels, but it can’t be separated between devices, unless a multi-output MIDI interface is used.
The same applies to the other 15 MIDI channels. While this would be colorful, it would hardly be musical, unless your tastes lean towards the avant-garde.

Each MIDI tone generator will play the incoming data with the sound assigned to channel 1, which may be:Ī helicopter effect on module 3 and so on Unfortunately, in the scenario above, there is only one MIDI Out port available.Īs such, all data sent on MIDI channel 1 will be sent to all four of the daisy-chained MIDI tone generators. Logic Pro is capable of channelizing MIDI data (routing it to MIDI channels 1 to 16) and is also capable of sending this channelized data to specific MIDI Out ports. There is only one MIDI Out from the computer, and all devices are daisy-chained via MIDI Thru to MIDI In connections. There are four MIDI tone generators that are capable of receiving data on multiple channels.Īll devices can receive on all 16 MIDI channels. To explain further, imagine a scenario where:

To take full advantage of the capabilities of each connected multitimbral device, you need to use separate MIDI Out ports (from the computer MIDI interface to the MIDI In ports) for each device. Each MIDI channel can be assigned a tone or sound, such as piano, strings, bass, and so on. Most modern MIDI tone generators can simultaneously receive MIDI data on multiple MIDI channels (multitimbral MIDI devices).
