Hi Everybody ,I use digital perfomer with my MIDI music in my studio but I now intend to play live using an old sequencer that I bought as a bargain but I have found a big problem to solve,Imagine the folowing scenario :
I have an Alesis QS8 , a Roland JV880, Roland SC880 on my midi setup and when working on computer everything is ok , but on a hardware sequencer is not that easy the problem is which MIDI COMAND I have to use in my external sequencer to tell that a specific MIDI track should play a patche on JV880 and another track should play SC880 . I know it is so simple but I can not remender how to do this. Anyone on earth could help me ? Is it a control change ? or sysex?? Cheers to all of you. I will be waiting for this help. THANKS A LOT. |

All synths set to receive on a particular channel will respond to data sent on that channel. If all three synths are set to receive data on channels 1-16, then all three will receive Channel voice messages including program change and note on, etc. To have only one synth respond, set one synthesizer to receive data on a channel and turn that channel off on the others. For example, you could set the QS 8 to receive on channels 1-5, the JV 880 on channels 6-10 and the the SC880 on channels 11-16. Turn off all other channels on the instruments.

Easy way to do is set up all you songs and the 2 sound modules to patches, vol., pan... on DP.
After that's done, export to MIDI files and you can load them to your hardware sequencer. Or maybe you can load your songs to the sequencer without having to convert them to MIDI file. I used to do it by setting the hardware seq. to record and hit the play button on the software. But you have to either set the tempo on each song or leave at one tempo for every song. If you use MIDI files you'll have more control of tempo and bars. Keep in mind that you have only 16 channels, so planning the MIDI channels accordingly. |
