When installed, the Blue Whale appears as a simple MIDI device with one input port and one output port. You should
select the listed Blue Whale input port as the MIDI input device in your software. Once this is set, your software should be
able to receive notes and controller data from the Blue Whale.
The port names are defined as USB Audio Device when connecting to USB port.
It will appear as a single USB Composite Device in the Device Manager.
