What are all of these ports doing?
As listed in MIDI-OX:
FW 1884 Port 1
FW 1884 Port 2
FW 1884 Port 3
FW 1884 Port 4
Ports 1 - 4 are simple. The MIDI Input and Output Ports.
FW 1884 Control
FW 1884 VP 1
FW 1884 VP 2
I enable 'Remote' output in Ableton Live on the 'Control' Port so Live can send control feedback such as encoder values & states. I don't find any mention by Tascam. Obviously there are communication channels over the firewire interface so I assume the Control port is input from the computer and VP 1 & 2 are 'Virtual Ports' for output from the controller. Why two of them? How are they addressed and used? Where are they documented?
Mercuriari, ignorant but teachable (and, I hope, not just lazy).
