Topic: RME Fireface 802 - is *midi* multi-client?
Hi there,
As far as I know, the Fireace 802 is multi-client capable. For audio, you are able to share the interface , between multiple instances.
I am wondering if the same can be said about the 'midi' portion of the interface? I am wanting to use my Fireface 802 in Cubase and use a standalone patch editor for my Roland JV-1080, using Ctrlr. You cannot access the same ports in Ctrlr, if your host is also assigned these ports, as an error will be thrown, that the ports cannot be opened, as they are already in use. The only way to get around this, is by using an interface that has multi-client midi capabilities. Being on Windows 10, this is a problem, as it wont' share devices between multiple apps, like Mac does.
Is the midi portion of the interface/drivers, multi-client enabled, so I can share the same ports simultaneously, between multiple applications?
Thanks so much, for any insight into this.
