Waiting for Midi but MIDI Monitor shows Midi

[spinne1000]

Hi,

I use SD3 on Mac.

I have a drumset (Roland TD11) connected via Midi Out (NOT USB) to a Bome Box, and this Box via USB to the Mac. I installed all necessary Software for the Bome Box. I installed Midi Monitor. It shows incoming Midi if I hit the drums. For example:

Source: From BomeBox – Net
Message: Note On
Chan: 10
Data: D1 94

and Note Off after that.

So, I think Midi works.

But in SD3 there is no Midi input.

I selected BomeBox – Net as Midi Device (its displayed and checked in the MIDI Device Dialog) and MIDI Channel is “ANY”

In the Analyzer is only “Waiting for Midi” if I hit the drumpads.

What have I to do, to get that working?

(I can not connect the drum direct to the computer. That would work, but I change the Setup to a TD 10 interface (the Audiofront eDrummin is not available at the moment) an need to route the Midi Signal to another computer. Thats why I need to use the BomeBox)

Superior Drummer 3 version: 3.2.8
Operating system: OS X El Capitan (10.11)

What midi interface have you selected in SD3? Is it the one you have set the Bomebox to output midi from?
I dont have a Bomebox but it works as a midi router so you will have to route the midi in you are plugged in to the midi out you have routed into SD3

I think I figured out the problem. The BomeBox sends Midi over Network. I disconnected the Usb from the Box to the pc and the MidiMonitor shows incomming Midi. But BomeBox does NOT use Rtp-Midi. So I think it is not possible to get the Bome network midi working with SD3/on mac. As you said, the Box is not a Midi device, it is a router. Bome will support rtp midi in the future, but at the moment I only can use it as a Midi splitter. I must connect the SD3 by Midi cable to my audiointerface and gets then midi input in SD3.

So, I get it working with the Bome Network Midi 🙂

The problem was the not running audio device on the pc running SD3. On stage, I use a Tascam Interface with 10 Outputs. But for testing in my office, the Tascam is not here. I did not think that that is a problem 🙂 I tried now starting the built in audio and all works fine. I get Midi over the network 🙂

Great. Glad you sorted it 👍
