Muting MIDI beat clocks
When MIDI beat clocks are transmitted to your MOTU
interface (via a MIDI device or the computer) they are
redistributed to all cables. If you do not want MIDI beat
clocks sent to all your MIDI devices, mute real-time data
on the output cables for those devices.
Muting and remapping
On the MIDI IN ports, muting occurs before channel
remapping. On the MIDI OUT ports, channel remapping
occurs before muting, as shown in Figure 5-6.
For example, let’s say that on one of the MIDI ports, you
are muting channels 1-8, and you are also remapping all
channels (1-16) to channel 16.
If you did this on a MIDI IN port, channels 1-8 would get
muted, and the data on channels 9-16 would get mapped
to channel 16. If you did this on a MIDI OUT port, all data
on all channels would be sent out on channel 16, since all
channels are mapped to channel 16 before the muting
occurs on channels 1-8.
Here’s another example: Let’s say you are mapping all
channels to channel 1, and you are muting channels 1-8.
On input, only channels 9-16 will get rechannelized to
channel 1, because channels 1-8 get muted first. On
output, no data would be sent because all channels are
mapped to channel one first, and then channel 1 is muted.
