Can the P3 share a MIDI bus with other devices?

2005-08-12 by Robert van der Kamp

Hi all,

I've placed the P3 along with other synths on the same MIDI 
bus. Now when I put the P3 is real-time record mode, I'd 
only like it to record incoming notes that are addressed to 
the P3's own MIDI channel, much like I want a synth only to 
produce a sound when I send it MIDI data to the MIDI 
channel assigned to it.

But by the way it looks now, the P3 is in OMNI mode, 
consuming everything that is put on the MIDI bus. So it 
looks like the P3 wants the whole thing, and not just one 
channel I assign it.

I'm still learning the thing (again), so I may well have 
missed a parameter or technique to get this done.

Btw, nice to read the manual again, but now together with 
the user guide. I just passed the section on playlist 
editing, and I'm another man now, more like the soldiers 
that came back from a war, heh. ;)

Btw2, I love what the P3 can do, it's amazing. But on a 
black DIY case, the user interface is a struggle for me. I 
never know if I have to press the first group of 8 step 
keys or the second set of 8. ;)
