Major MainStage MIDI routing problems
I just bought MainStage this morning and am brand new to it (so go easy on me).
I'm designing a patch which has two different Channel Strips in it, and I'd like them both to receive separate MIDI input, via the IAC bus. But it appears MainStage's MIDI input functionality is pretty broken, unless I'm missing something.
First, this is how I have my Audio MIDI Setup configured.
As you can see, I have two ports set up in my IAC Bus (Alchemy1 and Alchemy2). This seems to work properly, and if I go to any DAW, I can send MIDI output to both Alchemy1 and Alchemy2. Good so far.
In MainStage, in the Instrument Channel Strip Inspector, only one of those IAC busses shows up. (And yes, I have made sure to click Apply in Audio MIDI Setup, and have even quit and relaunched MainStage several times):
So I figured, never mind, I'll just use the first (Alchemy1) IAC Bus and utilize separate MIDI channels within Alchemy1. So I configured it like this:
...which, if I'm understanding it right, should make this particular channel strip respond to Alchemy1 MIDI channel 2. Am I right?
Well, it doesn't. It keeps responding to Alchemy1 MIDI channel 1.
Am I doing something wrong? Anything else to try, or are these legitimate bugs?
As it stands, I can't seem to create multiple channel strips and then designate separate MIDI inputs for each of them -- in any way, shape, or form.
Any help is gratefully appreciated!
