What is VirtualPort™

InSpire G2 has equipped a powerful feature named VirtualPort™,to help you
understand what VirtualPort™ is and its powerful features. Imagine there are four
individual devices with 4 independent USB connections.
The first advantage allows you to setup these devices flexibly, you could have totally
difference settings for all of these devices. For example, you may easily setup your
key-switch with piano sound-bank and drum sound for your drum pad. Secondly, as
there are four independent devices which will be recognised by your application, you
may control four different applications simultaneously with each controller. Thirdly,
each device (as listed below) is equipped with 4 VirtualPort™ that allow you to
switch on or off, it works like a matrix that you can send your midi message to the
other VirtualPort™ channels.
