Hmmm...normally on TO HOST ports you can designate additional TO HOST
streams to be directed to the MIDI out ports (On MUxxx units this function
is normally accessed from the UTIL/SYSTEM LCD function. e.g. setting Thru
Port = 3 directs the third TO HOST port stream via the MIDI OUT. Also one of
the MIDI IN ports is routed direct to TO HOST receive). I don't have an 01V
for testing, but I would imagine the same is true???
Either way, I will raise your query on mLAN breakout with the 'powers that
be' next time I see them.
