Assigning MIDI Track Input

Pro Tools lets you assign specific MIDI ports and channels to a MIDI track input. The default selection of All receives all incoming MIDI data from all ports on all channels. Use the MIDI Input selector to specify a MIDI port and channel for input.

For information on assigning MIDI input to Instrument tracks, see Assigning MIDI Input and Output for Instrument Tracks.

To assign a MIDI track input:

Click the track’s MIDI Input selector and assign a port and channel for MIDI input. Channels already assigned to another track appear in bold.

In the Edit window, select View > Edit Window > I/O to access any track’s Input selector.
