How would I switch the rotuing on the fly, say, via MIDI CC's?Ĭan Midi Channel routing be controlled via Automation per track?Ĭan you make transformers active by switches, or midi events? Please bear with me for a few more questions. Thanks, Scandor, I knew you'd come through. The Autodemix is active in the Settings so you must arm the tracks according your wish or just arm all tracks (the channelizing care for the midi thru.) I have created 3 tracks for the Standard Instruments in the Arrange as well. You have to cable the Physical Input according my instruction above.
I have created 3 Standard Instruments in the environment Roland, Akai & Korg so get the template from the attachment and set their PORTS first (I have set them to "No Port" currently).
I have set the channels according your requirements, but you can patch more transformers etc.
Note you must cut the Sum cable and cable the different IN hardware ports to the channel splitter directly and cable the Akai port to the Transformer labeled as "Fix Akai ch.5"Īs you see the Channel Splitter will give you the possibility to demix visually the incoming channels so you can patch a chain of transformers and multiply cables (channel paths) from each Channel Splitter channel pin. I'll try to show one of them named "Midi IN Junction".įirst of all you must channelize the Akai to some fixed channel - in my example template (see the image below) I set it to ch.5. There are lots of scenarios which can solve that. Where do I set in each channel where the midi input is coming from? So what I want i to play my roland, send notes to multiple locations (akai and albino at the same time), then playback the akai to, say, Omnisphere AND the Korg, while I play the Roland (sending on channel 2) yet controlling Albino on midi channel 7. but I can't route the akai's midi output, period without an environment with many transformers and toggle switches.? Yes, I've clicked the Record Arm button, the Auto demix by channel checkbox. I think I need some sort of switchable midi merge in the environment unless there's something I'm missing in the arrange window. I hope that's enough info to garner an answer.
Where do I set in each channel where the midi input is coming from? Or can I? While in "Auto demix by channel" mode, what do I have to do to:ġ) route the akai ME20a MIDI output to any channel (hardware or softsynth) I want on the fly? remember, the akai does not have assignable channels.Ģ) send midi data to the akai on the fly? it doesn't receive any notes (to record) unless I click on its external midi channel in the arrange, and thus I can't hear what I'm playing since no softsynth is selected. Softsynths: Omnisphere is on channel 4, Stylus RMX on 5, Albino3 on 2, a second Albino3 on 7. Korg MS2000R MIDI In + Out go to a Midiman/M-Audio Midisport USB 2x2 on Port B, on Channel 8.Īkai ME20A, a 1980s MIDI Arpeggiator than does NOT have an assigned MIDI channel: I records on every channel, and plays back on whatever channel the original recorded MIDI notes where. I am using synth for both as a controller, and for its built-in sounds. Roland SH-201 on channel 2, using its MIDI Out to a Tascam US-800's Midi In. The hardware MIDI devices I'm interested in working out some MIDI routing are as such: I'm using a variant of this trick in the environment, to remember my MIDI CC custom controller settings: I'm combining softsynths + hardware synths.
