We're always up for enhancing the documentation. I'm not quite sure what more we could say regarding choosing the MIDI ports and channels, besides to try All first. Is that what you are suggesting?
We purposely avoid using All as it can impact The NDLRs performance and people might be tempted to just leave it that way. Though we did leave it in there as a convenience for troubleshooting and we do suggest trying that in the Quick Start Guide.
Here's the Quick Start Section on configuring the MIDI Outputs. Would be interested in hearing from anyone who struggled with this to understand how to best improve on it."
weird - hit 'reply' but the posting didn't differentiate your post from my reply.
wasn't suggesting that per se (that's just my methodology) - just (in a quick start context) specific instructions about how to get to the midi settings, and what to change. I mean, i have devices that work pretty much exactly like this. the pyramid sequencer requires you to choose the usb port if you're using that, etc. this just says to set the channel, and I saw the usb coming in as channel one on my midi monitor. it says to go into the settings 1 menu). if you're using the machine for the first time, how do you know how to do this? similarly - it says online for early versions of the firmware to set to factory defaults, with no instructions there about how to do it. looking up 'defaults' in the manual didn't provide clarity....eventually finding 'reset', and then figuring that out. people (at least I) cannot intuit the keystrokes often if I haven't used the machine. In my case, I did use it a couple of years ago, but i've totally forgotten...
