Does the Komplete Kontrol software allow midi out?

Thomba

Situation:
I have mapped various knob assignments of the Orbit app inside the Komplete Kontrol software for tweaking purposes and was experimenting with this setup. The plan was to use this approach in a live setting. To prepare, I correctly routed a VST soft synth inside Studio One, using Komplete Kontrol as the relevant MIDI input.

Issue:
However, the VST synth does not receive any MIDI data when routed through Komplete Kontrol. When I use the Orbit app normally (without involving Komplete Kontrol) and apply the same routing, everything works as expected.

Question:
Is the MIDI output functionality of Komplete Kontrol working properly?

Thanks,
Thom

Do not believe KK allows MIDI out.

Yeah it does - at least you can route out the ARP and Chords, as well as hosted MIDI plugins - might work better in a host where you can route MIDI more easily?

I don't have the Orbit plugin but here is a setup in Freestyle (which allows free routing) where Modalics Eon Arp is driving Six Sines via the KK MIDI out

Well - I did not know that KK actually does support MIDI out :) (Per Kymeia) so thanks!
