Ah – I may be getting somewhere …
Decided to create a new project from scratch.
This created Midi input devices available in the “Input” part of inspector.
Assigned to default Absynth VSTi & could then play from keyboard.
However these Midi devices are not present in my main default project – just a folder of device mappings (Midi In 1 to 16).
Can I easily recreate all the midi devices (RME HDSP etc.) in my main project or have I got start from scratch ?
thanks
