7. If this is the only keyboard that you will use to control your external
synthesizers and virtual instruments, you should check the box
next to Default Instrument Input. This will automatically assign your
keyboard to control all MIDI devices in Studio One Artist.
8. Click OK.
If you have a sound module that you’d like to connect, leave the External
Devices window open and proceed to the next part of this section.
If not, you can close the window and skip to the next section.
Setting up an external MIDI sound module from the Start page.
MIDI instrument controllers (keyboards, MIDI guitars, etc.) send musical information
in the form of MIDI data to tone modules and virtual instruments, which respond
by generating sound, as instructed. Tone modules can be standalone sound devices
or can be integrated into a MIDI instrument, such as a keyboard synthesizer. Studio
One Artist refers to all tone generators as Instruments. Once you have set up your
MIDI keyboard controller, take a moment to configure your sound module.
Make sure you have connected the MIDI In of your external
sound module to the MIDI Out of your MIDI interface.
1. In the External Devices window, click the Add button.
