I have my TI keyboard connected to my PC via USB *and* connected to an Edirol UM880 MIDI patch bay (via MIDI obviously).
So long as I am not running Virus Control (it seems) then it I can use the TI to control other MIDI synths and can control it from my v-synth's keyboard.
As soon I start Virus control - the following seems to happen:
1. Local Control is switched off
2. Outputs default to USB
3. MIDI data from the TI ceases to be avilable on the TI's MIDI ports (Grrrr!)
So - after starting Virus Control, I switch audio back to analog out 1, and on the TI config menus, re-enable local control. I still havnt found a way to renable the midi ports which is making the TI a bit useless as a external synth control while Virus Control is running.
One oddity here Im am sure I have had TI MIDI port working at the same time as Virus Control at some time...
Anyone else shed some light on this?
The TI is supposed the have a dedicated remote mode - that isnt implemented in the current TI OS.
After the continual fun and games everytime I start Virus Control - I emailed support to suggest they add some permenant and global config options to it to stop it switching off local control and switching audio to USB.
Oh yeh - guess I should say that the TI's MIDI clock is hosed - ither generating it or slaving.
