No (and I think Dieter misunderstood you, whe he was answering). This 
does not make sense and can not be a feature of the A-190-5, but must be 
a feature of the MIDI-keyboard. A MIDI-Interface is not a 
MIDImasterkeyboard controller.

There is no feature like:
incoming MIDI-notes C E G on MIDI-channel 1 are split into
C on MIDI-Channel 1
E on MIDI-Channel 2
G on MIDI-Channel 3
This would be what you were asking.

A multichannel MIDI-CV interface can do the following things:
let react the four outputs react on individual MIDI-channels like:
  MIDI channel 5 = CV out 1
  MIDI channel 6 = CV out 2
  MIDI channel 7 = CV out 3
  MIDI channel 8 = CV out 4
for each of the outputs a different algorithm is thinkable (first note, 
last note, highest note, lowest note).
This is typically used if you want to play four different sounds in an 
arrangement (like bass, sequence, solo,...).


Let react the four outputs react on multiple note events of the same 
MIDI-channel like if you press repeatedly a three note chord C major in 
various algorithms. Like
first chord
  out 1 = C
  out 2 = E
  out 3 = G
next chord
  out 4 = C
  out 1 = E
  out 2 = G
or
first chord
  out 1 = C
  out 2 = E
  out 3 = G
next chord
  out 1 = C
  out 2 = E
  out 3 = G
This is typically used if you want to play one sound on four voices.
