RE: [Ensoniq-VFX-SD] Sending patch changes

2007-01-29 by Alfons Martinez

Hello Neal,

 

I had before a similar midi setup (VFX, Rack-1, Rack-2) and I used to do it
like this:

 

- Create a new Preset (remember a preset can have 3 patches)

- Assign to Patch 1: the VFX sound, adjusting MIDI=INT in the preset midi
page

- Assign to Patch 2: the Rack-1 sound, adjusting MIDI=EXT, MIDI channel=X
(the channel for Rack-1), MIDI Program=XX (the program you want in Rack-1)

- Assign to Patch 3: the Rack-2 sound, adjusting MIDI=EXT, MIDI channel=Y
(the channel for Rack-2), MIDI Program=YY (the program you want in Rack-2)

 

Then you should save this Preset (give it a clear name), and you can use it
when you need. When ypu select it, it will send midi changes to the other
racks.

Of course, you can create as many presets as you need.

 

For a more complex setups, you can do it in a similar way with sequences (up
to 12 midi channels).

 

Hope this helps.

 

Goodbye from Barcelona.

 

Alfons
