MIDI - Audio Question


Bobby Thistle

Recommended Posts

Greetings all...

When I set up 2 or more MIDI tracks with my hard synth (Ketron SD2) should I also create 2 audio tracks - one for each MIDI track?  Or does 1 audio track used for both - or more - MIDI tracks?

Much appreciated

It depends on whether the instrument mix coming from the Kentron is all that is needed or if some additional processing is planned.

The Kentron SD2 labels its two audio outputs as L and R so presumably the audio is in stereo.

So, it does not matter how many channels of MIDI data are sent to the device the output is stereo.

One stereo track is enough to capture the audio signal from the Kentron SD2.

However, in order to keep the instruments separate, one would need to record each MIDI track one at a time and create separate audio tracks for each MIDI track.

This is so helpful... it will sure help out with some frustration from trying to use 2 or more MIDI tracks with only one audio track.

Thanks so much!!!
