  • How can I use one MIDI device for two programs
    Windows will only let one application read from a MIDI device at a time so my solution would be to set up two virtual MIDI cables (e.g. Using loopMIDI) and then use MIDI routing software (e.g. MIDI-OX) to receive from the MIDI keyboard and output to both virtual MIDI cables.

  • What do I need to make this MIDI keyboard work?
    MIDI-OX is a very useful tool to see what MIDI messages are being sent by the keyboard/received by your PC, to rule out any application-specific issues. Source: about 2 years ago

  • MIDI support for music course
    I doubt they'll do that anytime soon. However when Music is available for desktops, you can do some hack around: mapping MIDI keys to computer's keyboard. Source: 5 months ago
  • Sky PC - Play music using your MIDI controller!
    Finally, you need a program to convert the MIDI commands into keystrokes that Sky can understand. I'm using a program called Midikey2Key. Once you have installed the software and launched it, select your midi device in the drop down menu, then go to Start/Stop Listening, select "Log to Window" and click Start. Source: 7 months ago
  • Using a mini controller to trigger
    Hi, it is on the to-do list but I don't know when it will be added. In the meantime I believe it is possible to use a program that translates midi keys into regular keystrokes, which you can then bind in LSG. Such as this: https://midikey2key.de/. Source: 11 months ago
  • [Other] Monoprice Stage Right SRP12 USB Pad Controller - $15.25 (CODES: YES20 + GET50)
    This is a MIDI controller, although for most people, the original functionality isn't as useful as being able to convert the inputs to hotkeys or macros and turn this into a budget Stream Deck or in-game macro controller. This is usually done with MidiKey2Key, AutoHokey, and/or Voicemeeter. There's also an OBS plugin that appears to still work but hasn't updated in years. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Others use their keyboard... I use my Midi controller for flight actions :)
    I am using the software Midikey2Key for this: https://midikey2key.de/. Source: about 1 year ago
