Re: MIDI Record and Thru question

2005-10-14 by philsmillie

so it would help if I knew exactly what other people are using the 
soft-thru options for...

A major use of the P3 for me is as a live midi router, allowing me to 
switch (from a midi foot controller, using P3's remote control - 
thanks Colin!) between up to 8 instruments by selecting "record arm" 
on the associated track. 

As a midi guitarist I can now keep playing my geetar and, with some 
adroit tap-dancing,  deftly select any voice I want, play some synth, 
tap another switch to record it into P3, drop-out of record then turn 
up the "real" guitar and noodle over the top of that lot. :-)

So, I only want soft-thru on, and only when, "record arm" on a track 
is selected.

Hope this makes sense and (more importantly) helps!

Keep up the most excellent work!
Phil
