particular device or devices. Lastly, individual translator entries can have

specific port assignments that override both the Preset and Project default

ports.

Devices represent actual hardware and software MIDI ports

Aliases are pointers to these devices which can be reconfigured to

point to other devices on the fly.

Use aliases to create human-readable names for your MIDI sources

and targets

Your project file stores the default aliases you're using in your project.

Aliases are displayed in italics.

For every virtual MIDI port, there is an automatically created alias.

You should use the alias for best portability of your project file.

3.3 MIDI Router

By default, MIDI Translator does

not route any MIDI data. For MIDI

data to be processed, either a

Translator must be created for it,

or a MIDI Router connection must

be made.

The MIDI Router is a patch panel

type setup screen that allows for

"patch cords" to be created

between available MIDI devices

and aliases. Multiple connections

can be made from a single source

MIDI IN device allowing MIDI data

to be replicated and sent to

multiple devices concurrently.

A MIDI Router patch connection in

Bome MIDI Translator can effectively be thought of as a MIDI Thru

connection. Any MIDI data that is received by a source device in a MIDI

Router patch connection is retransmitted to all connected destination

devices.
