Re: [xl7] Re: Channel 1B it's the same on each part?

2008-11-18 by Victor Yahoo

Hi,
Well I use pre-programed patterns.
Most of the channels are full with drums
and others lines... 
But also i use a external midi keyboard,
which by default can play only channel 1.
So I set to play 1B, and the ideea was
to have for different patterns set different
instruments on 1B. 
I use 1B just for playing live on this external 
midi keyboard. Otherwise I need to change
the instr. and volume on the stage.
Thanks

Ps. In this moment instr. and volume for
1B channel remain the same for all patterns.

I am not clear what you are trying to do.

Do you want to use the pads to play live on one channel (C01A for 
example) and at the same time have pre-programed patterns change the 
presets on different channels (C02A --> C16A for example)?

Also, are you performing in pattern mode or song mode? If you are 
using song mode, what is the setting for EVENT SOURCE Preset?

Not sure the answers to these questions will help, but I thought I'd 
ask since none of the other advice has solved the problem.

you'll need to set (at least) one track to be a "Multi" track - near 
the end of the Pattern screen. If you're just trying to use different 
channels (less than 16 unique, even if they're B channels), go to the 
same routing screen and just pick 1B (or whatever channel(s) you'd 
like). Finally, remember that you need to have note data recorded on 
the track for it to save preset info...
