- To create a new MIDI track, choose Session > - Add Track/Bus. In the Add Track/Bus dialog, pick MIDI - Track from the combo selector at the upper right. + A MIDI track is created much like any other track (see Adding Tracks, Busses and VCAs). However, there are a few things that are unique to creating MIDI tracks.

+ +

+ When adding a MIDI track using the Add Track/Bus/VCA dialog, the MIDI Tracks item should be highlighted in the Template/Type list on the left. This will enable the Instrument combobox while disabling the Configuration and Record Mode comboboxes. +

- You may decide to use a track template if you have one. - You may also know the instrument (a plugin that will generate audio in response - to receiving MIDI) that you want to use in the track. The Instrument selector - will show you a list of all plugins that you have which accept MIDI input and - generate audio output. + The Instrument combobox allows the selection of a plugin for the track to be created that will generate audio in response to MIDI data; if the track is intended to drive an external device then -none- should be selected instead.
