midi query, disable sound only midi in

Post by matticu5 »

I have an arpeggiator midi box, I can successfully plug it into the midi out and in so the nord keyboard presses get sent to it and notes are played via midi in, however the note is played back via me pressing the keys too, is there a way to send midi notes out and not play sounds on the keyboard via keyboard presses and only play notes that are coming via midi in?

You need to set „Local“ to off, see page 25 at the manual, downloadable here:

As Tasten-Bert says, turning local off is defo the right way to do it. But if you need to do it quickly in a pinch, like for one song in a set, another option is to turn the volume down to zero on the E6.

Another option is to create a Live buffer where all sections are switched off.
