Re: More track to channel confusion

2001-12-09 by beat_rebel

No, I'm not working with a soft sequencer. Why would I buy an XL-7 
just to use it as a sound module? That would be an unfortunate waste. 
I'm using the XL-7 sequencer and it's ability to sequence multiple 
channels from a single track. The problem is that I'm not going about 
modifing the data on a track properly and the result is misdirection 
of data to channels. I can go into note editor in pattern edit and
see that I indeed put the data on the wrong channel and can even 
change the channel for a particular note to the correct channel. I'd 
just like some advice on how to make sure I sequence to the correct
channel when working in grid-record with a multi-channel track. 
Anyone?

Alright, so I was able to merge tracks and achieve three identicle 
drum tracks that transmit to three shared midi channels. But now when 
I look at these tracks, no matter which channel I select via preset 
view mode the grid record mode will show the data for all three 
channels. When I try to modify the snare part(for example) for one of 
the tracks, I get the wrong sample from the wrong midi channel. Again 
I believe this is just a sign of my own sillyness, but how do I work 
with multiple channels on a single track with out getting confused? 
How do I make shure that I'm sequencing to the correct channel in a 
multichannel track?

If you're working from a software sequencer, you have to select the 
chanel from the sequencer to get it right for multichanel. Or select
a  
no output chanel to work on each single chanel.
