Actually I know no other Midi software offering all that Midi-OX has to offer.The main drawbacks of both are that they seemingly are not actively maintained anymore and that they only support MME but not DirectMusic.Midi Yoke offer bandwidth upto 16x of what the Midi standard allows over the sum of all ports downto a single port. This can be quite useful if you are routing several inputs to a single virtual port or just sending lots of Midi events into software that can deal with it. Detection of Midi Feedback is configurable with three different methods being offered (including turning off).I had some minor stability troubles with the combination of MidiYoke and Ableton Live. Usually it works out quite well though.Alternatives to MidiYoke are Maple Midi (which caused me trouble) and LoopBe. LoopBe is quite interesting in that it offers upto 30 channels, looks actively maintained and the same developer also offers a Midi over Ethernet solution. Thanks to you I just visited the LoopB page and this appears to be so much more intriguing and simple yet powerful for my purposes than the overcomplicated MIDI-OX and MIDI-Yoke. I've taken note of LoopB.However, yesterday I decided to take the hardware route because it is reliable and doesn't eat into any CPU cycles. I ran another long midi cable from the studio into the machine room. I routed the MTC out of a spare port on my MOTU midi express (Mac) and boom, it's done. Now I have my extra physical connection and no worry about software routing and reliability.īut it's good to have your references for software midi routers on the PC. The day will come.And this brings up a point.
