Topic: Beginner Midi Question

I am wading gradually into deeper water but often suddenly out of my depth. I have read as much as I can in the manual and searched too, but I think that my basic understanding of key concepts is too little.

This is what I want to do:

Nektar Impact LX25+ (connected to computer via USB) as controller keyboard for V-synth XT and FS1R connected to UCX via the MIDI breakout cable.

Is this possible? If so, would anyone be kind enough to walk me through the baby steps of menus?

If it is not possible, is this:

MIDI out from Prophecy to UCX, controlling the V-synth and FS1R.

Or am I missing the point here? Is the MIDI connectivity only for controlling the UCX?

Thank you for your time.

Re: Beginner Midi Question

The UCX MIDI ports are available in the system for any app/program that allows to choose MIDI ports...

Re: Beginner Midi Question

Thank you for an amazingly fast reply!

So is this something I have to organise in the DAW? I'm using Reaper.

Are the menus in Totalmix only for controlling Totalmix?

Sorry for such ignorant Qs!

Re: Beginner Midi Question

Yes, in the DAW.
Yes, only for TM FX itself.
No problem.

Re: Beginner Midi Question

Thank you Matthias, I got everything up and working yesterday evening.

I am new to all of this, but the more I use your creation, the more I realise what a great piece of engineering it is.
I'll probably be back in the near future with more (slightly less dumb) questions, until then:

Keep up the good work!
