Input Ports
The In Ports tab is where you configure how MIDI inputs are processed and routed.
Overview
Only ports that are currently connected will be shown. The In Ports tab has three main functions:
- Port Settings — Filter message types, configure MIDI clock, enable 14-bit translation
- Monitoring — Inspect incoming MIDI messages in real-time
- Routing — Create or configure routes for incoming data
Note: All settings are preset-specific. Different presets can have different configurations for the same port.

Routing Options
You can set up routing in two ways:
EasyConfig (Recommended for Beginners)
A simple, guided tool that helps you create routing setups without needing to dive into technical details. Perfect for learning.
Best for:
- First-time setups
- Simple A-to-B routing
- Quick testing
Routes (Advanced)
Full control over routing configurations. Build custom filter chains, transformations, and complex workflows.
Best for:
- Custom transformations
- Multi-stage processing
- Scheduling and advanced features
How they work together: EasyConfig automatically generates a full Route behind the scenes. After creating an EasyConfig, inspect the generated Route to understand advanced concepts.
Getting Started
- Select an input port from the list
- (Optional) Adjust Port Settings for filtering/translation
- (Optional) Use Monitoring to verify data arrival
- Create a route using EasyConfig or Routes
- Test with Monitoring
