175 Routing and I/O

Activating the Computer MIDI Keyboard.

The center row of letter keys on the keyboard will play notes corresponding to the white keys

on a piano, beginning on the left with the note C3. The black keys on a piano correspond to the

upper row of computer keys. The four leftmost letters on the lower row of the keyboard (Z,X,C,

and V on a U.S.-English keyboard) are used to transpose the note range and to set velocity, as

follows:

•The leftmost keys (Z and X) adjust the keyboard’s octave range.

•The next two keys (C and V) adjust incoming note velocity by intervals of twenty (20, 40,

60, and so on).

As it happens, when the computer keyboard is set to send notes between C3 and C4, the keys

are mapped to MIDI notes such that the center row of the keyboard (ASDF...) addresses the Im-

pulse percussion sampler’s sample slots (page 403). This means that you can play and record

drum patterns right off the computer keyboard.

Note that when the computer MIDI keyboard is activated, it will “steal“ keys that may have oth-

erwise been assigned to remote-control (page 487) elements of the Live interface. To prevent

this, you can turn the computer MIDI keyboard off when it is not needed.

14.3.3 Connecting External Synthesizers

Routing MIDI to an external synthesizer is straightforward: The Output Type chooser is set to

whatever MIDI port the synthesizer is connected to; the Output Channel chooser is used to select

which MIDI channel to send on.

In addition to routing via a track’s In/Out section, it is also possible to route from within a track’s

device chain by using the External Instrument device (page 401). In this case, you can send

MIDI out to the external synthesizer and return its audio — all within a single track. (Note: the

External Instrument device is not available in the Intro and Lite Editions.)

Important: If you are using a keyboard synthesizer both as a master keyboard to play into Live

and as a sound generator, then please make sure to check the synthesizer’s “Local Off“ func-

tion. Every synthesizer has this function, which effectively separates the keyboard from the sound
