Is there a way to get more than one midi controller to work on a windows pc without using an external app like "Midi Yoke"

You have to use an external app for that.
Regarding "
Midi Yoke", please read this:

If you're on a mac, i recommend using MidiPipe.. I use it to merge the signals of a Novation Launchpad S and Novation Launch Control. It works flawlessly and I have never had any issues with it. Best of luck.

I'm on a Mac.
Is it possible to use a AKAI APC MINI, which i already have, with Buttons #1 and a Novation Launchpad Mini MK2 (which i should by if it works) with Buttons #2 in Sweetlight at the same time?
thanks in advance.

Yes, if Buttons#1 and Buttons#2 show different pages.
No, if the same page is in both Buttons#1 and Buttons#2.
The reason is a button can be linked to only one midi message.

@Support: thanks for the info!
That's clear!
Now next and last thing to know is how to configure Midipipe...
For now this is still Chinese.
Any hints?

We never used this software, so we can not help.
We hope a forumer, who knows it, can help you.

@support: thx.
It's about: letting Buttons#1 and Buttons#2 showing different pages and merging the signals of the two midi controllers as far as i understand now.
The simple configuration in Midipipe might be something simple like seen on screenshot below, where i named a new Pipe on the right 'Merging AKAI & Novation controller' and added two times a Midi In & Midi Out.
I've dedicated the first MIDI Input & Output to my APC Mini and will dedicate the next Mini In & Out to the Novation Launchpad Mini MK2 i will by.
It should work one way or another as i read from some forumers here.
