[RWP] midi controller

[Indigo]

Jim, I just looked at the track options that are set  in my Reaper 3.76, 
running the latest ReaAccess.
I have the Dune VSTI synthesizer on track 1.
I have the AdrenaLinn sync 2 VST effect on its own track, with its send 
pointed to the Dune track.
I inserted a third track to record midi , with its receive pointed to Dune.
When I arrow to the record track, here are the options I find at the tab 
key:
Midi Output, my E-Mu 0404 PCI interface.
Channel all.
Num Channels 2.
Send To Parent On.
Solo Off.
Mute Off.
Phase Off.
Effects Active.
Record Armed On.
Record Mode Input.
Record Monitor Normal.
Monitor Items On.
Automation Trim Off.
Volume 0.00 DB
Pan Center.

I pushed R and began recording.
I played something on my edirol keyboard and heard what the Adrenalinn 
effect is doing to the sound Dune is sending to the Adrenalinn plug.
I hit spacebar to stop recording.
Somewhere in preferences I must have already set the track to jump back 
to the beginning of the recorded track, since I didn't need to hit W to 
jump to track beginning.
I hit spacebar and heard exactly what I just heard when recording, so 
these track options I find at the tab key must be working.
