Using Cyclone
Cyclone
• You can insert synths into Fx bins of individual audio tracks. If you use
this method, you need to set a MIDI track’s Output field to the name of
the synth you inserted. Then you can record MIDI data in the MIDI track
to play the synth with. This method does not allow you to use multiple
outputs.
