route midi from track: bug or feature?

[ForrestH]

Apparently you can set only one track to take input from another track; setting a second cancels the first, so you have to use aux sends and returns instead, which takes up widget space.

I suppose it could be a design choice, but I can't see why.

There should be a way with a rack. Perhaps try a rack with a signal splitter? Not certain, haven't tried it, but it ought to work.

You can create a midi or audio pass though with a rack. For midi insert a new rack on the track that has your midi input or clip. Connect the red (midi) input to the red output. Now copy this rack and place in front of your other Midi receiving plugins. If you want audio to also pass through, simply connect the relevant inputs and outputs (there will be both available for every track that the rack plugin is copied onto.

If you want the midi to both hit a plugin AND pass through, then the plugin must be added inside the rack and the red input connected both to the plugin and to the output.

There is also a midi patch bay plugin where you can route or block midi channels, but I don't use or know much about this practically.

Did you try to activate this option?
SETTINGS - General - Track Inputs - "Allow inputs to appear on multiple tracks"

SETTINGS - General - Track Inputs - "Allow inputs to appear on multiple tracks"

(pause to check) I don't remember whether I ticked it deliberately, but it is/was ticked; no avail.
