Before you start recording, make sure you create software instrument tracks for each MIDI Input device you want to record. You can also configure your MIDI sources in In/Out MIDI settings.

1. In the Track inspector for each software instrument track, use the MIDI In Port and MIDI In Channel pop-up menus to choose the MIDI In port and MIDI In channel that matches the MIDI output port and channel for the MIDI input device sending to that specific track.
