Controling 2 midi tracks at same time

Hi - this is apparently possible, but it's not working for me.
 
I have multiple softsynth/midi tracks in my project.
 
I have 2 keyboards connected. They bothy trigger whichever track is selected.
 
I can go to a particular track, and set it to receive input from 1 particular keyboard, rather than all inputs. This all works.
 
I can play piece and all softsynths/tracks play simultaneously.
 
But I can still only trigger in real time the 1 track that was most recently selected (clicked on).
 
How can I select 2 (or indeed more) tracks and have them both triggered by their defined input sources at the same time?
 
Thanks!
Mark
 

sory misread..

There is a MIDI preference setting (something like) "always echo-enable highlighted track", which you would turn off. Then echo-enable the two tracks you want to be controlled. Make sure the two tracks' port selections match (not "omni") the two different MIDI input ports of the two keyboards, then you should be OK. The keyboards will then individually drive the two tracks no matter which tracks are highlighted.
 
If you don't have two different MIDI input ports and you are daisy chaining MIDI thrus, then you need same port / two different channels for the two keyboard/track pairs.

Ah, OK. That makes sense! ;)
 
Many thanks.
 
Will try it as soon as I can.
 
Thank you,
