Virtual Midi Ports

! The Macintosh version of SoundEditor includes a Virtual MIDI Interface that allows you to connect

the SoundEditor application between your MIDI Sequencer (Logic, ProTools, Cubase, etc.) and the

DSI Tetra. In the MIDI Setup window, you’ll notice MIDI In Port and MIDI Out Ports labeled

‘Tetra V– Output Port’ and ‘Tetra V– Input Port’ respectively. These ports are established by

SoundEditor to provide a virtual MIDI bridge between it, your MIDI Sequencer and the Tetra:

NOTE: Although they appear in the MIDI Setup list, the Virtual ports

should never be selected. The Virtual ports are always active and are

designed to be used exclusively by the MIDI applications that will be

communicating with SoundEditor. You should select only the external

(physical) ports that will be used for the connection between

SoundEditor and the DSI Tetra.

! The Virtual MIDI Port function allows SoundEditor to interact with the Tetra while

! continuing to pass MIDI data to your MIDI Sequencer.

To configure your sequencer for this setup, you need to select “Tetra V – Output Port” as your

sequencer’s MIDI Input port and “Tetra V – Input Port” as your sequencer’s MIDI Output port.

With this setup, the sequencer will receive MIDI data from the Virtual Output and transmit MIDI

data to the Virtual Input.
