MORE DETAIL
The following two videos are for those looking to see these plugins in use as well as more detail on how to use them well. These videos are longer and slower paced because I tried to hit every possible little detail and concept. If needed, use the chapter markers as well as the yellow indicators to skip past information not relevant to you.
MIDI CONFIG HELP
To control an MC3, MC6 MKII or MC8 via midi use the morningstar editor to configure the following Controller settings under the General Configuration section...
- Set the Midi Channel to the desired number 1-16. It should have it's own channel to avoid conflicts.
- Midi Thru and Cross MIDI Thru should be turned ON, but there may be a few setups that require one of them to turned OFF. Hover over them to get extra info and consider what makes sense for your setup.
