6.1 Windows Setup
i
You’ll need to install a 3rd-party ‘MIDI loopback port’ application to use
the Hub. We recommend MIDI Yoke, which can be downloaded from
http://www.midiox.com
In your MIDI software (for example, Ableton Live), instead of selecting the controller’s in/out ports
in the MIDI preferences, select a MIDI loopback port, such as MIDI Yoke 1 (for input) and MIDI Yoke
2 (for output). In the editor’s MIDI Hub, select the same ports to pass this data onto the controller.
Once properly configured, you’ll be able to use your controller as normal, and use the editor to re-
program the controller with Presets or direct interaction.
6.2 Mac OS Setup
i
You’ll need to turn on the IAC Driver (Mac OS’s built-in MIDI loopback port)
in Audio MIDI Setup to use the Hub. Information about the IAC Driver can be
found at http://support.apple.com/kb/PH5172
In your MIDI software (for example, Ableton Live), instead of selecting the controller’s inputs and
outputs ports in the MIDI preferences, select the IAC Driver ports. In the editor’s MIDI Hub, select
the same ports to pass this data onto the controller. Once properly configured, you’ll be able to
use your controller as normal, and use the editor to reprogram the controller with Presets or direct
interaction.
6.2 MIDI Learn
In order to switch presets with MIDI Hub, you first need to assign two buttons on the TWEAKER as
‘next’ and ‘previous’ preset selectors. To assign a TWEAKER button, simply press the learn button in
the MIDI Hub window, then press the desired button on the TWEAKER to assign it. Repeat for the
other button.
