Assign direct output connections

You can assign a direct output connection to a physical MIDI output from any of the following object types:

Instrument
Multi-instrument
Mapped instrument
Touch tracks
GM mixer
MIDI metronome click

Any object with a direct output assignment is indicated by a white triangle to its right. The triangle is hollow when there is no direct assignment.

Assign a direct output connection

Choose a MIDI output from the Port pop-up menu in the Object inspector.
The Port pop-up menu lists all MIDI outputs, including the following options:
- Off: Disables the connection to the MIDI interface port.
- All: Routes the object’s output to all available MIDI ports—useful if the device is sending a pulse, for example.
