More Than Two Midi Controllers

[sauli]

Is there any reason why Renoise supports only two midi controllers at a time?

I could really use more.

+1 indeed

Yes a highly wanted feature…

For now:

Merging MIDI data
Required software: MIDI Yoke, MIDI-OX, VSTNETMID-Suite

Renoise offers two MIDI Input ports, probably enough for most. However, there may be a time when you need more of them. It is not unthinkable to own a MIDI keyboard, a MIDI controller such as a fader box, a joypad that doubles as
an XY-pad and maybe another stream of MIDI data from your buddy on another PC.

To allow Renoise to use more than two MIDI Input devices, we will use MIDI-OX, a tool used to analyze and remap MIDI data. We will only need a fraction of the functionality this tool offers, but feel free to explore its capabilities.
It might come in handy when you work a lot with MIDI.

Install MIDI-OX and launch it. Go to “Options/MIDI Devices” and select all input ports you want to use. In my case, MIDI Yoke port 1 for the joypad, port 2 for the data passed on from another application/PC, as well as “In USB Keystation”, my M-Audio Keyboard. Also add a free MIDI Yoke port to send the MIDI data to, which we will set as MIDI Input in Renoise (MIDI Yoke port 3 in this case). Make sure not to use any of the inputs you just assigned to MIDI-OX as Renoise MIDI Input for a second time.
