2 years ago I'll add a cfg option that disables MIDI completely in GTUltra. In this case, no MIDI initialisation or key detection will take place. This should make it work in the same way as the original GT Will that work for you?

This does work fine with original Goattracker, but doesn't unfortunately seem to be an option with GTUltra, as it seems to prioritize the utilization of the MIDI keyboard.
- Changing GTUltra's MIDI port setting to an empty row doesn't help. After rebooting software, the setting always returns to port 0 which is the keyboard and the only MIDI device connected. Changing the .cfg -file directly doesn't help either
- Launching GTUltra after the software synthesizer -> GTUltra doesn't start at all
- Launching software synth after GTUltra -> the keyboard is not selectable from sw synth's menu (apparently "reserved" for GT Ultra)
- Disconnecting keyboard and reconnecting it after GTUltra is started -> GT Ultra crashes
I would prefer to have a setting to turn MIDI completely OFF on GTUltra, so that it does not interact with the keyboard at all no matter if it's connected or not. Or am I missing something? :) Is there any other workaround I could try? Running on Windows 10.
