Title: Filter on selected MIDI outputs
Post by campbellr on Aug 22^nd, 2024, 4:22am

I need the same MIDI input to feed two MIDI outputs.
On one of the outputs I need to filter out the quarter frame MIDI Timecode. On the other output I need this included.

Is this possible?

Hi
You can split and filter the data.

Just to make sure that the General data filter isn't removing the QtrFrame already click menu Options / Midi Filter...
One of the Lines in 'Filter' box is System Common.
Select the '...' button to the right of it and remove 'F1-MIDI Time Code Quarter Frame' line if it is in the list to filter.

Let's do a quick demo by using the MIDI-OX Event port as the 'Midi_In_Port' (bottom left) in the MIDI Port Routing window.

In the MIDI Port Routing window draw a connection from the MIDI-OX Event port (bottom left) to 'Midi_Out_All' (the one to get the F1 data) on the right side
and a connection from the MIDI-OX Event port to 'Midi_Out_No_QtrFrame' (No time code for this one)

Open menu View / MTC Transport
Any MTC settings should work. Press Play and let it run for a second or so.
Look at the Monitor Output window and you should see the F1 messages being sent to the two outputs. ie both connected but not filtered.

Look for the small square in the middle of the line connecting the MIDI-OX Event port to 'Midi_Out_No_QtrFrame' and click it.
In the new dialog, on the System box is 'Common(MTC)'.
Make sure it is NOT ticked (ie the QtrFame is not passed through this connection)

Back at MTC settings window press Play and let it run for a second or so.
Look at the Monitor Output window and you should see the F1 messages being sent to only the 'Midi_Out_All' output. ie connected but Time Code filtered.

If all is well redo the above with your 'Midi_In_Port' instead of the MIDI-OX Event port and don't forget to change the connection properties to filter out the Time Code.

All the best
