Scouting for a synth controller as well as Traktor controller Posted on: 30.01.2013 by Mozella Wankel Hey all,I'm trying to find some sort of solution to let me get one controller, that'll work for Traktor functionality and also for a synth I have. I love Akai's LPD8; cheap, sweet, and simple. The problem is, the usb connection works fine for my pc, but the synth I'm using has a regular, full size MIDI input. I'm fairly new to the MIDI control world, can anyone believe of an option to kind of bridge this? Software, another controller, something totally weird that I would never have thought about, I can't intuitively believe of how I'd route a USB MIDI signal through and out to the Keyboard (which is also interfacing with my laptop via USB, but ideally I want it to standalone with an external controller. might have to comprimise though). I have Jack Audio, but I'm not too familiar with using it, nor am I even aware of whether it'd be capable of a task like that. | |

You'll get some candy out of it, too. I'm not sponsored by them (though I would love to be) but I strongly and frequently reccomend them. |
