Network MIDI
The mio4's Network MIDI feature is a bidirectional MIDI connection over Ethernet. The mio4
supports up to four Ethernet
sessions
, each one acting as a 16-channel MIDI port.
Connect an Ethernet cable from one computer to the mio4's single Network port, or use an
Ethernet switch or Wi-Fi router to connect up to four computers. Follow the instructions below
to set up the Ethernet session on the computer.
Network MIDI is built into Mac OS X, and Windows requires the free rtpMIDI driver available
here:

. They both look the same and
function the same way.
Connecting a computer to a Network MIDI Session
1. Connect an Ethernet cable from the mio to the computer.
2. Access the MIDI Network Setup screen:
In
Mac OS X
, open the Audio MIDI Setup Program in the Utilities folder, and click “Window” and
“show MIDI Studio”. Double-click the Network icon.
In
Windows
, open the rtpMIDI program.
3. Follow the four steps listed below (referring to the following MAC screen shot). In this
example we're connecting to ETH 1.
(

Click the + icon under My Sessions to
create a new 16-channel Network MIDI
session on your computer, called
