How do I use a MIDI controller with Cakewalk Next?

Cakewalk Next supports the use of multiple MIDI controllers at a time. If your MIDI controllers require dedicated drivers to be installed, please do so before setting them up. To set up a MIDI controller:

  1. Connect your MIDI device to your computer either directly via USB or through an audio/MIDI interface
  2. On macOS, click on Cakewalk Next at the top of the screen. On Windows, click on Edit
  3. Select Preferences, then click on MIDI 
  4. Choose the default MIDI Input or select All Inputs if you have multiple MIDI controllers you'd like to use
