All "controllers" (4 keyboards and 2 MIDI guitar units and the PC attached to first patch bay and each can trigger the other via that patch bay and/or send MIDI to second patch bay to trigger none, one, some, all of the midi modules attached there and the second patch bay is the path back to the PC so I always have a MINIMUM of THREE MIDI devices in "chain" from PC to patch bay to one of the units to its patch bay then back to PC via second patch bay (again that's minimum for me) and in actual use I have never had a "timing" issue (that was appreciable). I have a lot o gear so I use a patch bay (actually two of them) one feeding the other. You could play around with the order of your modules (with keyboard always being first) and see which unit has most noticeable delay and put it at END of chain like that. A drum beat e.g., Snare rim strick or bass drum hit is probably the best audible indicator of how much affect your chain really has at that point TRY it! Even with DRUM Module at end just to actually see how much delay you really do HAVE (is it noticeable). e.g., if you used one of those sound modules for mainly pads or slow attack sounds anyway you'd never notice in actual use if it was last and other units before it had minimal delay in tote. Those delays are minor and vary a lot by DEVICE - some have very little some have a lot but remember anything under 8-9'ish ms you won't even notice and depending on what your use the last item FOR in a long chain like that, you may have no appreciable drawbacks.
PC -> patch bay -> all, some, one (even with PC turned off) Or you could get a MIDI Patchbay and then you can control anything with anything via a Patchbay Program ("patch") selection and then you really could use just a MIDI 1x1 to connect to PC Neither is NOT AN IDEAL path since there would some MIDI signal delay (3 to 5 ms per in to out) by time signal got from PC to last device of about 15ms - so putting drums last was a dumb example on my part - but you get the "picture" MIDIsport Port 1 -> JV-30 OUT (not THRU) -> JV880 THRU out -> MVS-1 THRU out-> EMU Proteus FX THRU out -> MBD-1 Drum/Bass When NOT connected to PC or the MIDISPORT is OFF: MIDIsport Port 1 -> JV-30 THUR out -> JV880 THRU out -> MVS-1 THRU out-> EMU Proteus FX THRU out -> MBD-1 Drum/BassĢ. When connected to PC for Sonar (or other DAW use): If the answer is NO you can not then maybe IF you put device THRU to next device IN then you could drive everything with the JV-30 even with MidiSport and PC off? You want to use the THUR's so you don't have to worry about control channels (as much)ġ. Before I can make suggestions - why do you have each MIDI device on separate MidiSport ports?Īlso I fairly certain the 4x4 doe NOT have a "merge" feature: i.e., when PC is off or not connected there is NOT WAY to route MIDI data from a controller, e.g., JV30 into the 4x4 and out to other devices - is there?
