What is the difference between MIDI Thru and MIDI Outs ?
The MIDI thru output port is the “image” of the MIDI In port. It allows to easily integrate the Bitstream 3X in any MIDI setup. The MIDI thru port does not send the MIDI events generated by the Bitstream 3X. The MIDI Out 1 port is used to send the MIDI events generated by the Bitstream 3X, it is also capable to send incoming events from MIDI In connector (if merger functions are enabled). The MIDI Out 2 port is used to send the MIDI events generated by the Bitstream 3X, it is not used to send incoming MIDI events, but only dedicated to send internal events. Both MIDI Out 1 and MIDI Out 2 are also available on the USB port.
