USB Midi In > Thru to MD?

Howdy

I had a bit of a studio jiggle around today and have Midi going from Live to the A$ via it’s USB cable. I then have a Midi cable going from the Thru port to the MD’s Midi In… but nothing.

I can play the A4 but not the MD from Live. Is this set-up correct? I have Input From & Output To set to Midi+USB in A4’s global settings.

Ta.

OH/

I gave up trying to use USB Midi and plugged back in my TM-1.

Conclusion: A4 USB Midi is fine if you’re just going to the A4. If you’re wanting to send Midi down a chain, forget it. Doesn’t work.

I guess that makes sense, the USB Midi and DIN mid are effectively different Ports, the Ins get merged and the Outs are ‘mirrored’, but there’s no connection between the USB I/O and DIN I/T/O, a soft connection between the USN In and DIN Thru would be possible, but evidently doesn’t exist for some reason
