This example shows Band-in-a-Box configured to receive/record from a MIDI
keyboard on MIDI Interface Port 8. Band-in-a-Box transmits tracks on an assortment
of synthesizers, connected to various MIDI Interface ports. This scheme would be
useful on a large MIDI setup, if your best Drum sounds are on a Port 5 synthesizer,
best Piano is on a Port 2 synthesizer, etc.
Your setup does not have to be so complex. If you want all tracks to be played on a
single synthesizer (the most common situation), set the desired destination in the
Bass popup menu, and then click the ‘set all ports to this’ button, to quickly set the
destination for all tracks. You can get excellent results with all instruments assigned
to a General MIDI compatible device, such as a Roland Sound Canvas module.
