I am using a very old synth - Korg Poly 61 retrofitted twith midi (Mody Poly). As such (according to the Mody Poly’s manual) I need to do the following:
‘‘Make sure your DAW only receives on one channel, not omni.’’
Where in Cubase can I confirm/check that I am not receiving on omni?
on the midi track in cubase, go to inserts and then add midi monitor, with the midi monitor you can have a detailed look at the incoming midi data on this track
In the Inspector of the MIDI track, under Routing, in the drop-down list “Any” means “omni”, but you can just select the MIDI channel you want for that specific MIDI track.
This is excellent advise… for Cubase 13. However OP used the Cubase 10 tag, so it won’t help them.
@Philipp123
By default Cubase 10 will receive data on all 16 channels. If that is a problem, you need to filter out data that is coming from other any channel but 1.
Either globally in Edit → Preferences…
It is hard to see on my color settings but on this screenshot channels 2-16 will be filtered.
Or by using the MIDI Input Transformer, set to Filter mode.
I wonder why this would even matter, what possible problems could this cause? Does the Korg do something weird like send the same Note out on every Channel?
