Great video! We appreciate the shout out to our gear.. This video only scartches the surface so there are lots more fun things to learn for people checking this out.
🙏💪👍💯🔥 If there are any other features that you would like to see featured, let me know, and I would be happy to collab on a video. Much respect to the team!!!
So in order to play desktop synths via MIDI workstation like the Fantom, would it then be logical to connect them via MIDI hub into the the Fantom and the Fantom to the computer? It is possible to control for example Logic in the Fantom.
Here’s my situation. I have ten instruments that has midi thru, out and in as well as usb to pc. But I want one keyboard to play them all but also need them to be seen by my daw (studio one/fl studio). Do I need one of these midi interfaces? How would I switch to only one instrument/synthesizer in a track in the daw? 😩
What’s the difference between midi interface and audio interface. And what interface is best for a midi keyboard. I’m trying to hook up my iPhone with a keyboard to the daws/apps on my iPhone
The main difference has to do with how you transmit MIDI. Some audio interfaces have midi capability and some midi interfaces have audio capability. If you were trying to hook up your phone, I don’t necessarily think you need a midi interface. Look for this: www.iconnectivity.com/products/midi/mio
Most MIDI USB compliant ports go straight to USB hubs and allow USB protocol for librarian editors and VST plugin communications. From what I've gathered, once you bypass a USB hub and go into the host ports of the Mio system, it becomes only MIDI USB compliant and no longer will allow the editor patch recall stuff or VST control etc. That's got me twisted. Especially when considering this Mio system for its RTP ethernet possibilities or just going with a slightly dated but capable USB Type-B MIDI interface like a MOTU, Digidesign, Opcode, Emagic etc.
This actually depends on how the manufacturer set things up. There are 3 main ways companys will have their hardware connect to their software. 1) Allowing the selection of a MIDI in and MIDI out port. This one works the best as it just uses MIDI data to speak. 2) Naming scheme. Some softwares search the computer for a very specific name on a device. This name can be changed using a MIDI interface like the mioXM. 3) Scripting. This option usually allows the most integrated options from software but will not pass through a MIDI interface.
@@ET2carbon It will honestly depend on the manufacturer of the hardware and software. Everyday people use our gear to send Program Changes to hardware which will change the patch/preset. This works for lots of gear but being able to edit the patch in software and send to the hardware could be a different thing. VSTs can be controlled my basic MIDI controllers, but it just depends on the VST. I can control Omnisphere with a Korg NanKontrol, for example. Super simple device only sending MIDI data and you can learn it into that VST. Your DAW might give you connection from the controller to the VST too. Many people run Mainstage for keys and they can map a MIDI control in to change many different parameters on a VST. Unofrtunately it's not a easy black and white answer. Even within the same company you can have one devices that can do something that the next one can't.

what's the name of the song?
Hey there Bali. Which song are you referring to? Send a time stamp. Have a great day. Cheers!
Would be cool to operate bunch of Synth
👍💯 great piece of gear
Now im thinking that i really need a midi interface jeje
They also have a rack version as well. Cheers!

@@iConnectivitySupport respect. So which of those methods allow for patch recall and VST automation?

@@iConnectivitySupport ok thank you but I'm talking about specifically things like MIDIquest or ctrlr
