Arps ans midi channel routing..

Arps ans midi channel routing..

2005-01-08 by gonzinigonz

Hi All
Been playing around with the arps controlling my synths.
I having a few problems understanding how the midi channel routing 
works out.
This is what i want to do:-
This is just using the trigger mode with the controllers set to latch

Track 9  = Kick on midi channel 9
Track 10 = HH   on midi channel 9

Ive used 2 differant presets / arp patterns on each track to get the 
differant drum parts. It works fine if i had each part on a differant 
midi channel but as soon as i make them both channel 9 it will only 
play the last selected arp on that midi channel.
So can you not have 2 differant arps sharing the same midi channel?
How does the claim that you can run 32 arps at once work out?

If you program trigger 9 to play on channel 9 and trigger 10 to the same channel it won't work but perhaps i miss something about the multi/omni mode .

An arp only operates on one midi channel.
You can have 32 arps because there are 32 midi channels (16 each on A 
and B).

You couldn't have more than one arp on a single midi channel, because 
each arp would try
to process all the notes on that channel.

Ok, i can sort of come to terms with that one..
l'll have a play around with the beats mode and see what comes out of 
that.
