Pro Tools doesn't let me select a second instrument through ReWire

[NicoBaloira]

Hi,

I'm using Ableton as a ReWire app for virtual instruments, I have instrument tracks in Pro Tools, one for drums and one for keys, both with their respective ReWire insert to use Ableton, one with 3-4 bus and the other with 5-6. In Ableton I have two MIDI tracks, each with an instrument. Now the problem is I can only use one at a time because in Pro Tools, the instrument tracks only let me select the first channel in ableton, so when I have the keys on channel 1, I can only use keys, and similarly, I can only use drums on channel 1. Does anybody know how to fix this? I've been googling around, but I haven't seen any solutions that are for something newer than PT8.

Many thanks!

Edit: I'm using Pro Tools 2019.10

If you're going to use an instrument track instead of a midi track in Pro Tools, you'll need to enable the instrument view in the Pro Tools mixer to find the place where you can route the midi data to different channels.
