# Sending MIDI to different tracks in Ableton Live from the MPSEQ

Here is how to send MIDI to different tracks in Ableton Live from a single instance of the MP Sequencer (plugin and standalone MPSEQ). The same principle applies to other DAWs.

Create a virtual port in [loopMIDI](https://kb.mpmidi.com/books/mp-controller-documentation/page/13-midi-ports-on-windows#bkmrk-setup-midi-on-window), named TO DAW.

Select this port in the MIDI out of the sequencer pages you want to use. Then select the MIDI channel to send MIDI output.
