Hi guys/gals... hope you can help me with my small problem... So, I upgraded to sx2. Everything is great, except one thing. I have a midiman usb midisport 2x2 device, which in the new cubase is only shown as a [emulated] midi input. (What is emulated input anyway?) In the older version (sx1) were also emulated inputs, but next to non-[emulated], basically the ones I used. It wouldn't be a problem if it worked fine, but if I record with it, it puts notes like 3/4 before they were played. This is not good. So anyone, please help, I dunno what to do...

This is not good. >So anyone, please help, I dunno what to do... ignoreportfilter MIDI port filter - Important note regarding MIDI Interfaces ======================================================= Cubase SX / SL version 1.02 or higher has a function to filter out redundant MIDI ports provided by the MIDI interface driver. For instance if the MIDI interface driver installs both Windows MIDI ports and DirectMusic ports, these ports used to both show up in former Cubase SX / SL versions. Since DirectMusic mirrors the Windows MIDI ports as "emulated" DirectMusic ports by itself, it was possible that the MIDI ports showed up even 3 times in the MIDI device list in Cubase SX / SL. These multiple appearances of the MIDI ports were actually "multiple versions" of the same physical MIDI port. To avoid this, Cubase SX / SL 1.02 and higher provides an option to remove these redundant entries utilizing the MIDI port filter. However, in some cases the non-filtered, left over MIDI ports that will show up in the MIDI device list of Cubase SX / SL can be the ones that actually do not work as the MIDI interface driver doesn't support the DirectMusic architecture as Cubase SX / SL would expect. These cases were for example found with the following MIDI Interfaces: - MIDIMAN MIDIsport 8x8 - MOTU MIDITimepieceAV -And OTHERS as well In this case, you can re-enable the filtered MIDI ports by proceeding as follows: - Browse to the Cubase SX / SL application folder (usually C:\programs\steinberg\cubasesx) and locate the folder "MIDI Port Enabler" - Open this folder - Pick the file "ignoreportfilter" and move it into the Cubase SX / SL application folder (one directory up) - Start Cubase SX / SL Now all available MIDI ports provided by the MIDI interface driver will appear in the MIDI device list of Cubase SX / SL. Please be aware that the MIDI ports now can show up 2 or 3 times in the list. If you're used to manage your MIDI IN by setting "All MIDI Inputs" in the MIDI IN selector, you should go to the Device Setup/All MIDI Inputs and disable the unwanted ports. Otherwise you will record MIDI from multiple ports which results in double MIDI notes. ========================================================== In addition to the above text from Steinberg. After doing this: Go to Device Setup/DirectMusic and select "NO" for all ports. Now there will be no (emulated) ports visible. Ap
