    Is MIDI Thru implemented?

    When plugging a Korg NanoKontrol2 into the USB port, I can control the Bluebox. That works seamlessly.
    Now using the MIDI Out and going into a Digitakt it seems like the Digitakt doesn't receive the CC messages sent by the NanoKontrol.

    Does the Bluebox MIDI Out pass the MIDI messages received on the MIDI USB and MIDI In or are they somehow filtered out?
    In other terms, is MIDI Thru implemented?

    Alright, coming back after some testing.
    I've plugged the NanoKontrol "directly" into the Digitakt with my trusty Kenton MIDI USB Host mkII.
    It's working as expected, which means that it's neither a NanoKontrol nor a Digitakt configuration issue.
    For the record, I send CC94 and CC95 on MIDI channel 1 to 8 (respectively for Mute and Volume or each Digitakt audio track).

    Either MIDI Thru is not implement or some CCs are filtered out by the Bluebox.

    This could be implemented with a menu in TOOLS page to enable / disable it.

      1010music said MIDI Thru capability is available, but I haven't been able to get it to work either: https://www.instagram.com/p/CKNOyAUh...3258509/?hl=en

        I'll take this opportunity to thank 1010 for *not* outsourcing support to social media. Many users have opted out of the pretty hate machine and are thus locked out of the garden. Thanks for keeping it real on these pages.

        I'll take this opportunity to +1 puffycaps comments. One of the reasons I love following the development of this mixer (as well as using it) is that it requires no social media. Thanks guys

        Yeah, I'd like to +1 too. Glad to be off from social media and happy not to be dependent on those to get the proper info on the gear!

      Excited for more routing opportunities when MIDI Thru is implemented

        Has anyone managed to get USB -> TRS MIDI thru working yet? I’m assuming the fix wasn’t in the latest firmware?

          I also I'm having trouble. I have my USB midi controller connected and working, but as far as I can tell it's not sending anything in TRS MIDI out. Is USB->TRS MIDI Thru meant to work?

            Currently, the bluebox THRU's sync but not note data.

              I see, is there any possibility that it could be made to send note/CC?

                Yes. We are looking at that.

                I agree midi thru would be very helpful. I have a Launch Control XL plugged into the device port to control some of the blue box but it would be great to be able to use the out as a thru, to control other devices

                    The bluebox currently thru's clock signals. The blackbox does not offer a traditional thru. However, you can certainly send MIDI thru the blackbox.

                      Hi Steve, does the Blackbox output clock through the USB Host port? My controller only have a USB connection. Thx

                      Yes. The blackbox will output MIDI clock via its USB Device port.

                    +1 for midi thru please.

                    This would be so useful to integrate a usb midi controller in a compact hardware rig. Its a very weird omission to not have a thru mode in a device with both usb host and a midi out port...
