Hello
Thought check with your midi knowledgeable if I thought right in the midi chain when I serialized it.
Fataren or Composern be master and all others to be slave.
Also I wonder if i have to turn off anything on the Korg´s (Local Mode?)

Enclosed please also find answers from others who commented on my question to get the whole picture before you can give your opinion.

It depends entirely on what you want to do .. But your sketch looks incorrectly connected if not Composern only be able to control POD'en? POD'en is additionally linked in the "handshake mode" which is normal when you have a "librarianfunktion" in their sequencer to change or edit the patches in the unit.
Did a Google search that I linked to below .. Unfortunately I have not the time to make a pedagogical explanation of your specific connection then it will require a lot of time .. But I think you get the help to get it explained by some Youtube clips and then poke a bit of manuals synthesizers .. the hard part is not MIDI in itself, but how the respective MIDI device communicates with the outside world and how to set it to do what you want .. it's not all MIDI devices that have a completely logical structure to understand how and where to look and what the manufacturer elected to the important functions to be called.
"Local Mode" is a feature that is important in most synthesizers with the keyboard and this will usually be turned off if you use a sequencer, which basically means that it disengages the keyboard against his own sound engine, and when you play the keyboard is sent instead MIDI note data into the computer via the sequencer and back out to the channel to set the sequencer.
.. But your sketch is indicative of a very different scenario in the absence of quite a lot of information for you to get the right function

It all depends on what you want to accomplish or what you want to control with what. Remember that the "thru" is just a copy of the.
I do not know how much you already know, but I see the series connection of MIDI to anything that belongs to history. (It did (at least I) at the time when the MIDI interface was expensive and USB were not there.: Blush
I do not know if it would work for you, but when I used the midi control most, I saw that every synth get your own in / out port - and then run midi echo between synthesizers in your computer.
That if you want to control a synth with another synth, you can: 1) create a midi channel in your sequencer, 2) select the port and then out port and channel. 3) Then click on the midi-echo channel.
Now send MIDI signals from a synth to another (without having to worry about which channels synth listen / do not listen to).

Hello
In this case, it is so that I have thought Fataren or composern (Master) shall govern all other MIDI equipment. (Slave)
Hence, I wonder if I connected right or if I need to have each device connected to hand in Gauntlet mode for this to work, which of course then means that I guess I must have 2 Midi Sports for everything to fit? Or should fataren / composern connected directly to the PC and all other Midi Gate? Should I disconnect everything in the chain that the baskets of goods via thru and then to SC88 and SR16 on to the Alesis and finally through the pod to late in the Midi Gate?
Okay now I have drawn up two scenarios on how to connect the devices of which the bottom is Chatrine Milton's proposal and you then see that it becomes a device (POD) who become the channel to connect on which you can solve with linking it to Out of the blue interface from PODens In and Out PODens to SC88 In B when it has two IN's it may be something?
