The MIDI device manager dialog shows you the MIDI devices
5
that you currently have available to you, and where they are
6
connected. To reach this dialog, use <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guimenu">Studio</span></span>-><span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guimenuitem">Manage MIDI Devices</span></span>.

As described in the <a href="studio.html#studio-introduction" title="Devices, instruments and connections">Devices, Instruments and
9
Connections</a> section, by default Rosegarden tries to
10
provide a plausible set of devices for you at startup, and
11
to make sensible connections for those devices. But the
12
default configuration might not always be suitable, and so
13
this dialog allows you to rename devices and modify their
14
connections and play/record direction.
16
Each of the Play devices listed here provides a target for
17
MIDI tracks to talk to: if you add a new Play device, you
18
will then have 16 new instruments on this device which you
19
can assign tracks to. If you then assign a connection for
20
that device, the tracks assigned to it will play to the
21
appropriate channel (depending on the instrument) of any
22
MIDI synth attached to that connection.
23
</p><p> The Record devices listed here represent possible
24
sources for recording MIDI. You can make one or more of them
25
current (so that Rosegarden will listen to them when
26
recording) using the checkboxes on each line, as shown in this
27
dialog. </p></div><div style="background-color: #white; color: black; margin-top: 20px; margin-left: 20px; margin-right: 20px;"><div style="position: absolute; left: 20px;"><a accesskey="p" href="studio.html">Prev</a></div><div style="position: absolute; right: 20px;"><a accesskey="n" href="studio-bank-editor.html">Next</a></div><div align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html">Home</a></div></div><div style="background-color: #white; color: black; margin-left: 20px; margin-right: 20px;"><div class="navLeft">The Studio�</div><div class="navRight">�Managing banks and programs for MIDI devices</div><div class="navCenter"><a accesskey="u" href="studio.html">Up</a></div></div><br><br><div class="bannerBottom" style="background-image: url(bottom-middle.png); background-repeat: x-repeat; width: 100%; height: 100px; bottom:0px;"><div class="BannerBottomRight"><img src="bottom-right.png" style="margin: 0px" alt=""></div><div class="bannerBottomLeft"><img src="bottom-left.png" style="margin: 0px;" alt=""></div><div id="comments" style="position:relative; top: 5px; left: 1em; height:85px; width: 50%; color: #cfe1f6"><p>Would you like to make a comment or contribute an update to this page?<br>
