Has anyone actually been able to use 2x Akai APC Mini midi controllers in vMix successfully? I have tried with Midi-OX & MIDI Translator Pro. I am not able to successfully use one APC Mini on midi channel 1 & the second APC Mini on midi channel 2. vMix either sends button color output to both or none. Have the same issue with midi output from both. Sometimes vMix goes crazy as if the midi intput is in a loop. I have also tried using both of the mentioned programs to map both APC Mini controllers to 2 seperate virtual midi ports. Same issues. It does seem that vMix gets confused as both midi controllers are named exactly the same. Even though this should not be an issue when disabling midi input from the APC minis and using only the virtual midi ports. Is anyone able to assist? Or maybe someone has a configuration file for either of these programs that will do what I am asking. Thank You in advance. :)

Update: I got it working with help from Bome support forum. Midi Translator works great!
