Connecting to Multiple Machines
Loading Machines onto the Main MX-View Window: 
MX-View auto-detects all machines available on the local network and automatically 
places them in the Network window. In the Network window, select the desired machines 
(local and remote) while holding down the Ctrl key on Microsoft Windows, or Cmd key 
on Macintosh, so that they appear highlighted. Then select File Menu 
→
→
→
→ Edit or press
the space bar. The machines will now appear stacked in the main MX-View window.
The
order that machines appear in the main MX-View window is dependent on the order in 
which the machines were selected in the network window. 
Each machine is separated by
it’s own time-ruler and may be run independent of other machines on the network, 
although this feature is most effectively used with machines that are synchronized 
through the TL-Bus. 
 
 
When multiple machines are launched in the main MX-View window, an additional 
column of machine ID (Bus ID) numbers is added to the right of the main transport 
controls. The Transport window as well as keyboard, has control of only the machine ID 
that is highlighted. To change Transport and keyboard focus from one machine to the 
next, click once on the desired ID number.

with Bus ID 2.
