MIDI Setup (Windows)

MIDI Setup (Windows)
OASYS PCI automatically appears to the Windows multimedia system as two 16-
channel MIDI devices. You can select these MIDI devices within any MIDI
program.
Using the OASYS PCI with Windows MIDI programs
When using the OASYS PCI with an OMS sequencer, we recommend that you
enable MIDI patch-through in the sequencer, and disable direct MIDI input to the
OASYS PCI. To do this:
1.
2.
The Preferences window will appear.
3.
The MIDI/Global preferences page will appear.
4.
This is similar to the Local On/Off parameter found on some synthesizers.
Turning it off means that the OASYS PCI will not directly receive MIDI from MIDI
controllers. Instead, it will only respond to MIDI patched through from other
programs, such as a MIDI sequencer.
This setting prevents various strange things from happening, including phasing,
hung notes, and notes cutting off prematurely.
5.
This will patch the MIDI output of your controller through to the OASYS PCI. The
name of the parameter may vary depending on the particular MIDI program being
used. Depending on the program, you also may need to select a track assigned to
the OASYS PCI, and/or record enable the track. Please consult the program's
manual for details.
6.
The HTML-format OASYS PCI FAQ has detailed, step-by-step instructions for
setting up OASYS PCI with specific MIDI programs, such as Cubase, Logic, and
Cakewalk.
Using the OASYS PCI Editor as a stand-alone MIDI program
When using the OASYS PCI Editor as a stand-alone synthesizer or effects
processor, without any other MIDI program, you will need to enable direct MIDI
input to the OASYS PCI. To do this:
1.
18
Open the OASYS PCI Editor program.
In the Edit menu, select "Preferences."
Click on the MIDI/Global tab.
Turn off the "Editor Responds to MIDI Controllers" checkbox.
In the MIDI program, enable MIDI patch through.
Read the OASYS PCI FAQ for more information on specific MIDI
programs.
Open the OASYS PCI Editor program.
