Sending MIDI

How do i see what channels i am sending MIDI out from?. Basically I'm trying to update my Waldorf Blofeld and it looks like I'm sending data into Logic but it's not sending the update firmware back to the Blofeld? So i need to know if I'm sending on the correct channels?.
Any help would be great.
Thanks

Set up the Waldorf in omni mode so you will be sure that the MIDI data will be received.
cheers

Cant get macbook pro to send midi signals

I have a new Macbook pro running 10.8.2 and I am trying to send midi singals to an Elation Magic 260 light controller. I have an M-Audio Midisport USB Uno connected from the macbook to the magic 260. I have installed the drivers for the uno, I can see it show up in my AMS screen and have created an external device for my Magic 260. When I go to test the setup...I get no sgnal coming from the macbook. Just wondering if anyone out there can offer some insight or advice?
Thanks in advance!

Sending MIDI tones to Nokia!!

Hello,
Now four days and still having this problem, I am facing a big problem in sending a MIDI (Polyphonic) file to a Nokia handset, my testing handset is 6610, I am using SMSJ API (http://sourceforge.net) for my projects, I have sent lot of different tones but not the MIDI til now, have you any experience on this? What about the NBS Port x1581? Shall I change it when I sending a MMS? What about the UDH format? Does it have some special format for MIDI? Plz help.
Greetings.

the best way to send midi tones is through MMS... attach the midi file just like an image...

ActionScript 3.0 -- Sending MIDI messages

I'm looking for ActionScript 3.0 methods that allow me to
send NoteOn MIDI messages and MIDI continuous controller streams
such as pitch bend.
Last time I checked Flash had very limited MIDI control -- it
could only play whole MIDI files! Does ActionScript 3.0 have offer
more specific control?
Anybody in the know?
MIDI is the most efficient and flexible music delivery tool.
It’s VERY powerful asset that Flash would be wise to support.
When Flash/ActionScript supports MIDI, you’ll see what I
mean. To date Flash has grossly underutilized the MIDI protocol.

I believe this is an important point, so I'll try saying it a
different way.
MIDI is to digital audio as vectors are to digital artwork.
It's great that Adobe leverages the efficiency of vector
graphic into Flash. Imagine if animators could only use pixel base
artwork in Flash... files would be huge, and flexibility and
editability dramatically reduced.
The lack of MIDI support in Flash’s "audio toolbox" is
tantamount to Flash without vectors.
I strongly encourage Adobe to expand ActionScripter by adding
extended MIDI support. PLEASE give ActionScripters methods for
sending MIDI messages, such as NoteOn MIDI and continuous
controller streams such as pitch bend. And give us tools for
accessing an array of available MIDI synthesizers. Ideally Flash
Player and Flash Player plug-ins will host a flexible synthesizer,
but in the meantime, allow us to access the synths in QuickTime
player, QuickTime plug-in, WMP or Java.

HT4101 Problem sending midi program changes to a Boss Gt100

Hi I am using an app called Set List Maker to send midi program changes to a Korg Triton keyboard successfully but no such luck with a Boss GT100 guitar processor. The message I get is something like cannot use this device.

Sending MIDI from prg I�ve written to Virtual Instr. on my computer

Anyone who can give me the few lines it takes to send the three bytes 144, 60 and 127 (chan1, midC, full volume) from my homemade prg to a Virtual Studio Technique Instr. on my computer? It seems that there is a lot more free code about how to receive and play MIDI than how to send MIDI to a commercial VSTI on ones computer.

Sending midi via Motif USB to Logic.

Can someone explain how to set up my Mac,Logic pro 9 & Motif es6 to send midi note messages to Logic? I just need to use my Motif as a midi controller.I downloaded the drivers on my Mac & hopefully it is there!
Thanks.

If it is installed correctly then...
Open Logic, create a new project... add a software instrument track... (You can add a software instrument to that track to hear notes at this point too) select that track.. and just play notes on your Motif6 and look at the transport bar to see if those notes are being received by Logic... They will appear under Note In...
If midi notes are not received then the Motif is not being recognised correctly by your Mac.. (It's actually nothing to do with Logic itself.. it's OS Xand the drivers you installed that control everything) and so you need to check you installed the drivers correctly but normally, it's pretty much plug and play....

Sending MIDI from Logic to Motion

Motion (Apple's animation software) allows MIDI instructions to change animation parameters. I was wondering if anyone here has been successful in sending MIDI instructions from Logic to Motion and can take me through the steps to do so. (I have a related question over in the Motion forum.)
Thanks in advance.

Take a look at "midipipe" and "midi patchbay" too.(free downloadables)
They're probably just front-ends for the IAC bus, but sometimes GUI is good.
Be wary when enabling virtual midi patches cause logic sums all inputs which can create a feedback loop. It seems to not hang my computer indefinately when it happens nowadays, just freeze it for a few seconds then give me a few seconds to fix it before freezing again for a while.
If your getting into realtime midi to graphics also check out "quartz composer" in the osx developer tools too.
..or "pure data" with GEM if your real brave.

Sending Midi Timecode to ETC Ion Lighting Console

Hello,
I am not very experienced with MIDI at all, but I am helping to explore options for a project I am involved with. Does anyone know if Audition 3.0 supports MIDI Show Control (MSC) or if there are any 3rd party plugins that add this functionality?
Basically, we are putting on a light show production in our city. We want Audition to run the audio and lighting console. The ETC Ion console can accept midi cues to trigger stop/go cues on the console but I believe it has to be a MSC setup, not just straight MIDI.
Another way to do this is if Audition sends the time code via MIDI we can run it that way. Does MIDI send a timecode?
Does any of this sound possible?
Thanks,

In Mutlitrack mode Audition can send MIDI Timecode.

How connect to device that sends Midi-Signals via USB?

Hello,
does anybody know how to communicate with a device that sends Midi-Signals via USB? I am working with Windows XP. I would appreciate any kind of hint.

Unable to send midi from Mainstage out to Rewire applications

I can't seem to find out how to send midi out from Mainstage to other applications, such as Reason.
I created an external instrument channel strip, but in the midi out -box out the channel strip I can only see the physical midi output from my audio interface. The Rewire application should be visible here as an option, shouldn't it - or is there another way to send midi out from Mainstage to be able to play for example Reason instruments with Mainstage? Any ideas what might be wrong? I have Reason open and it seems to be working as a Rewire slave as it should, but somehow it isn't visible as a midi port in Mainstage.

Hey Malmberg, I was able to get this to work by doing the following steps:
Opened Mainstage and my Mainstage concert file first
Then opened Reason (I only have the demo)
Selected a patch I wanted to use in Mainstage to Reason
Clicked + to create a new Ext channel strip
In the MIDI Out box, I used the dropdown list and choose Reason (see image)
It could be that the sequence you used so open MS first, then Reason

Send midi from software sequencer to midi out

I am quite new to logic and sometimes am confused about the midi routing...
I have a sequencer (Reaktor) in a software instrument track, from wich I want to send midi to my hardware synthesiser. (sometimes maby recording the midi coming out from reaktor to a midi track)
I have the output channel in Reaktor set to the same as the receive channel of my synthesiser. (everything works fine in Reaktor standalone)
But I was not able to do it from logic ...
I tried option-clic on the triangle in the track in the environnement, to draw a beautiful cable to the corresponding midi channel of my instrument track...
And a few other things...
My synthesiser still recieve nothing.
If anyone can show me the road, i will be very grateful.
Thanks

Here is thread from the Reaktor Forum:

Send MIDI Sequence to GarageBand

Hello,
Is it possible to write a Java program that OSX will see as a virtual MIDI device (just like it might see a real MIDI USB keyboard) so that I can programmatically generate and send MIDI sequences through GarageBand?
I am experienced with Java and C and I have written device drivers. But I am not sure where to begin because I have zero experience with the javax.sound.midi package.
I envision the following: When I run the program from a terminal it initializes a virtual device and then pauses. At this point if GarageBand is running I should see the familiar "The number of midi inputs has changed" message. Then each time I hit <Enter> and it plays my coded MIDI sequence. I can select a different instrument in GarageBand and hit <Enter> again and it will play the sequence again using the new instrument. Pressing 'x' or a special character will cause the device to deinitialize again triggering the aforementioned GarageBand message and the Java program will exit.
Is this possible?
Any direction would be greatly appreciated.
Mike

Hi,
I have a similar question, so I'm curious if you ever found an answer to yours. I was wondering if I could get a Java sound Synthesizer for a native synthesizer AudioUnit (specifically Ivory Pianos). It doesn't look like it.

Send MIDI notes to external device

I used to send midi notes to an external harmonizer in Logic 9 by defining it as an instrument in the environment and cabling its input to the midi keyboard out.
Just tried this on Logic X and the harmonizer isn't receiving MIDI.
Anyone else?

Hmm.. sorry - rebooted harmonizer - ok now.

When running a "stand-alone" APP..how do I send midi from Logic?

Hi all,
When running a "stand-alone" APP..how do I send midi from Logic?.....Please no IAC stuff it doesn't work.......thanx
SvK

using IAC here no problems. works very well.
you can host your au's in another app such as soundflower or au lab, but you are still going to need to get it to hear midi. you can use physical midi ports with something like a MTP midi interface, and getting the midi by routing the out of one port to the in of another (midi loop) but you have to be careful logic doesn't listen to the same midi signal or everything will jam up (midi feedback).
