Title: Two Arturia 49 Keyboards On the Same DAW on the Same Computer?
Post by: rcuk1 on March 14, 2013, 09:08:27 pm
I am running Cubase 7 on a Mac 10.8 operating system. I'd like to connect two Arturia midi controllers to one or two Arturia software systems on the Mac. I am using a midisport Midi merger. Going in and out of Cubase 7 as a DAW. Running one keyboard in and out on midi A and the other on Midi B.
Is this possible? If not how can I utilize both keyboards efficiently without having to install Arturia on a second computer?

Excellent Question....I really hope that someone from Arturia will answer your question.  I'd like to know the answer too.

The easiest way is to use a USB cable connection as most of arturia Midi controller are USB powered :
For this example we will use Cubase 7.02, and 2 Analog Experience the Laboratory.

Inside Cubase
1/ Add a new track:
     ==> Project --> add a track / instrument track
2/ Chose Analog Laboratory Software
3/ Under the drop Down where is written "All Midi Input" :
     ==> Choose "Laboratory"

4/ Replicate these three steps to create a second track.

Once the time to choose the second MIDI Input, a second Laboratory will appear.
Unfortunately Cubase does not distinguish between the two keyboard, Like Ableton, or Logic, so you have to manually pickup the correct Laboratory.

To make sure you can play them both at the same time, make sure the record button is correctly ticked.

Let me know.
