Set Up Your MIDI Devices

All MIDI-capable hardware devices are collectively referred to as External Devices in Studio
One. There are three types of External Devices, including Keyboards, Instruments, and Control
Surfaces. While each device type functions in a slightly different way, there is one menu to add
and set up any External Device. The menu can be found by navigating to Studio
One/Options/External Devices/Add Device (Mac OS X: Preferences/Options/External
Devices/Add Device).

A MIDI keyboard controller is a hardware MIDI device that is generally used for playing and
controlling other MIDI devices, virtual software instruments, and software parameters. In
Studio One, these devices are referred to as Keyboards. To use a Keyboard and record a
performance, the hardware must first be set up. Once a Keyboard is set up, it will be available
at all times for use in Studio One.
