Using the MidiPort in your
Application Software

Once the MidiPort driver has been
installed, you need to configure your MIDI
application software to use the MidiPort.
Every application does this a little
differently, so we can only cover the
basics here. Most MIDI applications have
a MIDI port configuration or MIDI settings
dialog window. This window is usually
titled something like " MIDI Devices " or
" MIDI Setup." This is where you select
your MIDI Input and Output settings. It is
necessary to configure your OMS Studio
Setup as well.

After the MidiPort drivers are installed,
the port selection shows midi Port's input
and output. Make sure that each of the
input and output is highlighted or
checked in the dialog box, in order for the
port to be enabled for use by the
application.

Follow your MIDI sequencing program's
instructions for setting up the rest of your
MIDI studio. You may need to put your
controller keyboard into "Local Off " mode,
and the sequencer into "Keyboard Thru"
mode. To play one of your synthesizers
or modules from the sequencer, select
the MIDI output that corresponds to that
instrument. Again, check your
sequencer's instructions for more details.

Services

If your MidiPort needs servicing,
follow these instructions:

1. Ensure that the problem is not related
to operation error or problems with
external devices.

2. Repackage your MidiPort in the
original factory packaging including
protective padding and box. If the
original packaging has been
misplaced or damaged, be sure to
pack the unit carefully. ICON is not
responsible for any damage that
