HELP! Using midi keys & control surface together...

[xgsjx]

For my birthday (was Sunday), the Mrs got me a Korg Nanokontrol2.  I've set it up as a Mackie Control within Logic so I can use it as a mixer, but whenever I turn on my keys controller (NI S61 mk2) it stops working as a mixer.

 

Do any of you fine chaps know if there is a way around this?

Have you tried seeing how they appear in the Audio/Midi setup app? I think you should be able to create a composite device from both of them.

Nope, I didn't even know that existed.  I'll go have a look just now.

Well I had a look, but I've not succeeded.  Tried creating an Aggregate device, but that only seems to be for audio devices (it sees my audio interface, but none of the midi devices.
 

In "Midi studio" I can see my controllers, but I can't see how to make a composite device.  I googled to see where I was going wrong, but couldn't find an answer.

Check Korg and Logic websites, there may just be a dedicated driver etc to use as you require? 

There often is.

Good luck.

Sorted it. I created a new midi profile in Midi Studio, closed Audio Midi setup & then reopened Logic. Had to re set up the Jorge as Mackie Control, but it all works perfectly. 
 

Thanks. I’d have never looked there had you not pointed me there.
