Hi all first time post for me..

I have a Studiologic 990XL midi keyboard running through a Presonus Audiobox 44VSL using midi in, and a MAudio Keystation 61es keyboard connected via USB.

What ever I seem to do both keyboards are able to play the same device, either a Studio One Presence, or an EZKeys Piano. I have both keyboards set to all midi channels and thought by selecting the keyboard in the top right section of either instrument should do it i.e. only allow that keyboard to play that instrument. But it still allows both keyboard to play it, and even worse when recording allows midi to be sent to the track by either keyboard.

I don't seem to be able to chose in either EZKeys or Presence what midi channel to use, as I thought I could maybe only send midi channel one with one keyboard and midi channel 2 with another and get round it that way. But still no joy... :(

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks

Have you tried going to the device manager and selecting that one keyboard does one channel the other do another channel?By default there set up to do all 16 channels not sure if this will work but its worth a try set one keyboard to channel 1 and the second one to channel 2
