Device Setup submenu
How to get there
From the MIDI Menu, choose Device Setup.
What it does
These commands allow you to edit MIDI setup settings.
- MIDI Setup. Choose this command to open the MIDI Setup dialog box where you can edit
a number of settings pertaining to your MIDI interface setup. See MIDI Setup dialog box.
- MIDI Thru. If you prefer to use one
keyboard as a controller and another as the sound source, MIDI Thru must
be on if you wish to hear notes from one device as you’re entering them
on another.
- Open
Audio MIDI Setup. Choose this command to open OS X’s Audio MIDI Setup
dialog box where you can adjust settings for MIDI input and playback.
For example, you might use Audio MIDI Setup to assign a name to the port
used to connect your external MIDI device. (The port’s name will appear
accordingly in SongWriter’s MIDI Setup dialog box).
