Assigning MIDI Track Output
Pro Tools lets you assign specific MIDI ports and
channels to a MIDI track output. The default se-
lection of none sends MIDI data to no port on
any channel. Use the MIDI Output selector to
specify a MIDI port and channel for output.
To assign a MIDI track (and all its regions) to a
specific MIDI device channel:
■ Click the track’s MIDI Output selector and as-
sign a port and channel for MIDI output. Chan-
nels already assigned to another track appear in
bold.
To assign multiple destinations to a single MIDI
track:
■ Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac)
the MIDI Output selector and select additional
channels from any device.
Assigning MIDI Input and Output
for Instrument Tracks
Instrument tracks have a specific view for MIDI
controls, including MIDI Input and Output se-
lectors.
To view Instrument track MIDI controls, do one of
the following:
■ Select View > Mix Window > Instruments.
– or –
■ Select View > Edit Window > Instruments.
MIDI tracks in Pro Tools cannot contain
multiple channels of MIDI data.

dow > I/O to access any track’s Output se-
