ehm ehm, Stefan .. 

the kawai k5 could do that in 1987 
16 zones on a 5 oct kbd and rx/tx of 16 MIDI channels
strange enough the k5000 which is newer could only do it in 4 zones 
we always get less with new .. and pay more :-( nice e ? :-D  

the ex5 in performance mode (32 actually as it has 2 midi outs !) 
the k2500 in setup mode 

it is a must in a master kbd ! 

concerning controlling parameters  .... 
i still dont understand why the evolver as new as it is, has not been 
designed to be controlled by midi CCs , u could use 128 of them ! 
Would have make it so much easier to control parameters from any 
simple generic controller   

ciao
andrea
