Wouldn't changing channels affect my key assignments though?

Hmm maybe I'm going about this all wrong.

I think I'll need to have a preset for DAW/mixing and a separate preset for performance/playing VSTi's.

Maybe that's a no-brainer for others, but I was really looking forward to having both on 1 preset. I guess having to switch between isn't THAT big of a hassle. Or at least, I should start that way, and maybe down the road as I get more comfortable, I could start to really organize how I'm routing my MIDI signals.

It seems like a lot of people are having trouble with MIDI in general. I just started reading this book, Basic MIDI (http://www.amazon.com/Basic-MIDI-Mus...2077652&sr=8-1) by Paul White. It's GREAT. Tiny little book that explains MIDI to musicians. There's just enough technical information in it to explain the practical information.
