MIDI Setup

Assumptions

It is assumed that the user is familiar with the basic functionality of the hardware synthesizer, its User Manual and

the basic concept of MIDI itself. Without this knowledge, utilizing the Editor may be a bit more challenging to set up

and use properly. By familiarizing yourself with the the synthesizer manufacturers User Manual, this User Manual,

and having a basic understanding of MIDI, you should be able to get up and running in a short amount of time.

Setting Up the Synth

Make sure you have your MIDI ports and channels set up and matching properly and that all cables are working

and connected properly.

1. This software is designed to be used with Pulse OS version 1.4 or above. Firmware versions above this may or

may not be supported by this version of the VST-AU Pulse Editor™.

2. Set the MIDI IN and Out ports and channels to the one connected to your computer.

Setting Up the Plug-in for your Host (DAW)

The setup procedure will vary by Host. Each Host will support plug-ins differently. Please refer to the 'Supported

Hosts' list for this products support web page on the reKon audio web site at www.rekonaudio.com. Also, please

refer to the setup instructions provided with your Host application for setting up a VST or AU plug-in.

Syncing both the DAW Host and the Editor with the Synth

The Editor gives you several options for routing MIDI data bidirectionally. As a result, you can send Host MIDI data

into the Editor, which in turn, will get sent on to the Synth via the Editors MIDI Out port. In this process, the MIDI

data is actually transferring between two separate MIDI systems; the Host's, and the Editor's. This transfer process

may work fine for previewing your sounds, and possibly smaller projects, but will likely not suffice for a lot of

sequenced data. If you are having issues with syncing and hearing delayed or offset playback from the Synth when

using the Host to send MIDI data to the Synth through the Editor, then you can create a setup that prevents the

latency/syncing issues.

You can use a Virtual MIDI Cable and a MIDI Routing Application to allow BOTH the DAW host and the Editor

direct access to the same MIDI Output port using their own systems. This allows you to have the DAW host

sequencer send it's data straight to the synth. And, the Editor will have it's direct connection to the synth as well.

Here's how to set it all up. (In this example, the following tools were used. Other tools may work in a similar way):

• Windows 7 64bit (with a MOTU MIDI Express XT using port 8 to connect to the Synth MIDI In and Out)

• MIDI-Ox (a free MIDI Routing App)

• LoopBe (Virtual MIDI Cable). (MIDI Yoke and Maple MIDI will work with 32bit Win OS, but not 64bit Win

OS).

• Any reKon audio VST-AU Editor™ product.

• Cubase 5 32bit (DAW host).

1. Open the DAW host. In the DAW host MIDI setup (typically found under 'Preferences') disable the port that you

are using to connect the synth to the editor. (ex. port 8).

2. Using a Virtual MIDI Cable (MIDI Yoke, Maple MIDI or LoopBe for Windows, it's free. Use 'Audio MIDI Setup'

app on Mac and create a virtual device, also free). Make sure the VMC is installed and working properly first!

3. Using a MIDI Routing app (MIDI-Ox for Windows, it's free. Use 'Audio MIDI Setup' app on Mac, also free). Open

MIDI-Ox and make the following connections:

1. Open the 'Options/MIDI Devices' view and make sure you have selected the MIDI Out port you are

using to connect to the synth (ex. port 8).
