Hi,

Could someone tell me if this is possible.

At the moment I have a midi keyboard for use with Mu.Lab which is attached to the computer using the midi input on my sound card. Problem is, it has no knobs or sliders.

I want to get a control surface, something like the Korg Nano Kontrol which is USB.

Can I use both in Mu.Lab at the same time?

Unfortunately I don't have the money to buy a decent 61 key keyboard with knobs etc.

Thanks

Si

Yes, you can use both with MU.LAB. But you'll have to find a way to mix the midi out of the keyboard with the midi out of the controller into the computer.

If your soundcard has 2 midi inputs, then there is no problem.

Otherwise you might need a midi merge module.

the keyboard is connected to my m-audio 2496 soundcard using the standard 5 din midi input and the control surface will be usb input

can you use one of them as MIDI through ?

not sure about midi thru. Why do you ask?

Sure, multiple USB ins, no prob.

In MU.LAB 2.7: main menu -> Edit -> MIDI Setup, there you can select up to 8 MIDI inputs :) (also if the MIDI comes in via USB)
