Drambo not transposing MIDI per-track settings
Hello,
When I start a template I've created for Drambo, the data from my Faderfox EC4 (via-USB) is received, but not transposing. I have one track's settings dedicated to receiving nothing but EC4 information ("always"), set to Transpose, and the output to my interface that should be sending to my MPC1000. Initially, it worked with this template. But over time, something has happened without the settings being changed. The Monitor on my MPC now shows no data received.
However, if I setup a new project with the exact same settings, the data transposes fine.
Any assistance appreciated, thanks!

Could you post a screenshot of the track?
Has Drambo been updated since this worked? Drambo does not update very often. The latest was 2.10 in June 2022.
Video of issue.
Drambo will block the already mapped midi notes and CCs. If you need to control both Drambo and external devices with the same CC, then you can map it to a CC generator knob as well, and then output the generated CC to the external device.
Thanks! This turned out to be what it was. Can't believe I never noticed this before.
To the devs, any chance this could be changed? I'd like to record MIDI performances in my MPC for later.
Automatic 'Midi Thru' is always a risky thing to do as it could easily create duplicate messages especially if one forgets to switch 'local off' on the 'controller' (The MicroFreak is prime candidate for midi-loops if one is not careful).
But in this case it could work since you're using a different output devices (MPC) and sending the CC's from the FaderFox.
Very true. @ZhouJing 's suggestion may be a better one in the long run. Thanks for the help everyone!
