I am wondering how people are setting up their studio with a Motormix, pacarana and logic. Right now I have my motormix being routed via a motu mtp av into the midi i/o of a tc konnekt 8. I have a midi instrument track in logic that I sequence on that is being sent to the Pacarana as well. This information is being merged with the motormix through the MTP av.

So my problem is Logic is all ways listening for incoming midi data on channel 1 and is picking up the information from the motormix, which screws up levels, switches record enabled tracks, etc. etc. plain ol' mayhem. I am controlling Logic with a MC Control, so I can't just mute channel 1 info.

So how can I isolate the Motormix information for exclusive Kyma use so it will not interfere with my DAW?

Rgiht now verything is on the same host computer. I think if I was to use Kyma on my laptop and separate my DAW host and Kyma host, I wouldn't have this problem. This might be the way to go in the future, but for now that won't work because the TC Konnekt 8 does not work with Kyma if it is plugged into the Pacarana. Since a MBP has only one Firewire port, it is unusable.

I could really use some suggestions to work through this.

Thanks

Without that, the solution you need is to create an environment object in Logic and using the environment you can bounce all data from the Motormix port back to the Kyma port and keep Logic from 'listening' to the data coming from the Motormix.

I think that is going to work out just fine.
