Emu XL-7 & MP-7 User's Group

Hi rob,

just out of interest, can you send one channel to multiple channels? i.e.
P1C1 to P2C1, P2C2, P2C3, P2C4 ... while at the same time merging data from
another port i.e P3C1 to P2C1, P3C2 to P2C2 etc ?

Regards,

Stu

Sonar


  I am also trying to get everything organized and here is my idea. I
  have a Motu MTP/AV and love it so much that I am about to get a
  second one just to manage my beat boxes. The MTP/AV is an 8 by 16
  MIDI patch bay that is very programmable. Almost any MIDI channels
  from any port can be split out and routed to another port. Using this
  I will make Port 1 the master in. Channels from Port 1 input will be
  split out to the output of several other ports.

  Port 1 Channel 1 to Port 2 Channel 1 – XL-7
  Port 1 Channel 2 to Port 2 Channel 2
  Port 1 Channel 3 to Port 2 Channel 3
  Port 1 Channel 4 to Port 2 Channel 4
  Port 1 Channel 5 to Port 3 Channel 1 – MP - 7
  Port 1 Channel 6 to Port 2 Channel 2
  Port 1 Channel 7 to Port 2 Channel 3
  Port 1 Channel 8 to Port 2 Channel 4
  Port 1 Channel 9 to Port 3 Channel 1 – P2500
  Port 1 Channel 10 to Port 3 Channel 2
  Port 1 Channel 11 to Port 3 Channel 3
  Port 1 Channel 12 to Port 3 Channel 4
  Port 1 Channel 13 to Port 4 Channel 1 – DX200
  Port 1 Channel 14 to Port 5 Channel 1 – AN200
  Port 1 Channel 15 to Port 6 Channel 1 – Electribe R
  Port 1 Channel 16 to Port 7 Channel 1 – RM1x

  This way my Command Stations are 4 part multi-tembre while other
  units are single channel. Sonar only has to Port 8 Channels 1 through
  16 of my primary MTP/AV to access those 7 units. If I want to dump
  something into the XL-7, or maybe my RM1x I can then attach the
  output of that device to Port 1. In fact, I can set up programs in
  the MTP/AV so that the output of the Command Stations or the RM1x can
  take turns controlling all devices. I think the MTP/AV holds 128
  programs. So I can store songs in each of the devices. When it is
  time for that device to be the master I can change programs on the
  MTP/AV, no re-patching of MIDI cords.

  In my current setup I have a very handy program in the MTP/AV where
  each channel of Port 1 is redirected to a corresponding port number.
  P1C2 maps to P2C1, P1C3 maps to P3C1, P1C4 maps to P4C1. With this
  program I play any device in my setup on channel one with my Fantom
  just by changing the Fantom's MIDI channel.

  Robert
