NOTE
If using a software synthesizer inside a
DAW application:
By using a function known as echo back or
MIDI thru, DAW applications can send
received performance data back to the
source—in this case, the reface. This function
must be disabled if you do not want the reface
to produce sounds in response to returned
MIDI data. For details on how to do this, refer
to the owner’s manual that came with your
DAW application.
