FAQ: How To Use MIDI Controlled Plug-Ins in LUNA

This article explains how to use MIDI-controlled plug-ins with audio files in LUNA.

Note: This example is for playback with audio tracks that have already been recorded. However, MIDI can be recorded in real time.

To control plug-ins via MIDI, follow the steps below:

1. Add the MIDI-controlled plug-in to an audio track:
   

2. Configure the MIDI-controlled plug-in to receive MIDI input. See instructions below with examples:

   Auto-Tune Realtime X Enable To Notes in the Advanced > MIDI section	Softube Vocoder Disable TRANSPOSE CHORD
   Auto-Tune Realtime Advanced  Enable TARGET NOTES	Eventide Harmonizer Enable KYBD
   Antares Auto-Tune Realtime Enable Target Notes via MIDI

3. Create an Instrument track with no instrument loaded. Set MIDI IN to the MIDI controller being used to input MIDI. Set the MIDI OUTPUT to the desired audio track.
   
4. Once setup is complete, you can manually draw MIDI notes or record MIDI notes in real-time on the “Instrument” track to trigger the MIDI-controlled plugin on the audio track.
