[SOLVED] MIDI script for USB MIDI interface with multiple ports?


#1

i have a multiport USB MIDI interface and want to do some routing via Axoloti.
(the interface is class compliant, and i can see how it's exporting in & out ports when connected to my linux box.)

from searching these forums, i know that such kind of devices is supported by current Axoloti. so far so good.

but what's absolutely unclear is: how do i refer to individual ports, say, in a MIDI script?

could anyone provide me with further explanations or examples?

thanks in advance.


#2

since i'm continuing to dig forums, here's a quote from an old topic:

is that „midi port (not channel)“ the entity i'm looking for?

Yes , midi port is a usb midi ‘thing’ , so it’s defined in the usb protocol rather than the midi bytes.
Potentially there can be 16, but I think (?) I restricted the UI to 4.


#5

i knew about MIDI scripts from forum search results, so now i learned that doing the same job with objects is better, and successfully added all missing ports by editing embedded objects.

problem solved.
