sending MIDI expression data to two Macs?

Post by gwillimw »

Hi - I have a keyboard rig with redundant backup via KVM switch and a Radial SW8-USB. I need to send the Expression device data to two computers (Mac Minis) at the same time. I'm assuming I can connect the MIDI expressions to the KVM switch and it will send to both rigs... anyone have experience with this?

thanks,
WG

It probably depends on your KVM switch. On mine, it does not work.

Hi,

One thing I used to do which may work for you is using a ME iO and (A) sending the MIDI DIN to one destination and (B) sending the USB to another destination. This will obviously not work with a classic ME or the Quattro.

Hope this helps :-)
