Default Re: Midi track to Instrument track

As has been said is previous posts, you then can just route any MIDI track to whichever plugins you require, using multi-timbral VI's more effeciently by having them playback multiple MIDI streams.

This can be a bit more clear depending on how you like to label your tracks:



Drums-groove
Drums-fill
Piano-part A, etc

might be names of the MIDI tracks ie named for the parts



Structure
Strike
Velvet, etc

Might be names of the Auxes ie named for the VI
The only reason I use Instrument tracks is because they have a different symbol and default color. When the session gets big it makes viewing it a bit easier especially when there is a large number of Audio, Instrument, and Aux tracks in a session.
