Kontrol MK3 With Virus TI2 Desktop

NivAroya

Hey,
Is there a way to connect the Kontrol MK3 to virus ti2 with the new option of "MIDI templates"?

Thank You :))

You need a din midi cable maybe two, then you connect the keyboard midi out to the TI midi in and TI midi out to keyboard midi in. Please see manual chapter 10 Midi Mode, Maybe this helps too:

Hello,

yes of course, you can do that via your daw and you can use them the keyboard as midi interface too. Or if you just power up the keyboard for stand alone mode (pls see manual) it automatically puts out midi through the midi din sockets. And in both cases you can use a self made midi template or even several templates if you want to control some more devices (of course connected then accordingly)

How do I connect the virus with the Komplete in stand alone mode and how do I config the midi with the template new mode?

thank you so much for the answer.

I forgot to mention that the virus TI2 for sure has a "midi implementation table" there you can see what cc is doing what and that of course you need to know if you want to make a midi template.

Strangely i could not find the midi implementation chart for the TI2 only for the 1, maybe it´s the same

Yeah, it's the same. I think all the Viruses share the same MIDI implementation.

Would be cool cause there is already an access virus b midi template in the MK3 template thread - definitely worth a try

At least the things I mapped matched (filter controls, filter and amp envelopes, master volume).

@chk071 you are right, i checked midi implementation charts for the virus b and ti. Both are almost the same, so @NivAroya you can download the template here and test it out:
