GETTING STARTED
STEP 4
In the Send To drop down menu, select the MIDI interface output from which Studio One
Artist will send MIDI data to your keyboard. If your keyboard controller does not need to
receive MIDI data from Studio One (say, for moving motorized faders and the like), you can
leave this unselected. If your keyboard does need to receive MIDI date, you must connect a
MIDI cable from the MIDI output of the MIDI breakout cable to the MIDI input of the
keyboard.
STEP 5
If you have a sound module you'd like to connect, leave the External Devices window open
and proceed to the next part of this section. If not, you can close this window and skip to
Section 2.2.4: Configuring Your Audio I/O.
Setting up an external MIDI sound module from the Start page:
MIDI instrument controllers (keyboards, MIDI guitars, etc.) send musical information in the
form of MIDI data to tone modules, which respond by generating sound, as instructed. Tone
modules can be standalone sound devices or can be integrated into a controller, as with a
keyboard synthesizer. Studio One Artist refers to all tone generators as Instruments. Once
you have set up your MIDI keyboard controller, take a moment to configure your sound
module.
STEP 1
STEP 2
In the Receive From drop down menu, select the MIDI
interface input from which Studio One Artist will receive
MIDI data. In this case, AudioBox USB.
If this is the only keyboard that you will use to control the virtual
instruments and your external synthesizers in Studio One Artist,
you should check the box next to Default Instrument Input. This
will automatically assign your keyboard to control all MIDI
devices in Studio One Artist. When you are finished, click OK.
Connect the MIDI In of your external sound module
to the MIDI Out of your AudioBox USB.
In the External Devices window, click the Add button.
