It seems to be a workaround for 2 or more keyboard controllers sending in
midi data on different ports, but still supposedly controlling more than one
VSTi at once... but can't you make just one controller send data out over
different ports depending on the value of the note? I know some of the Fatar
midi keyboards will let you set up various splits on the keyboard internally
but I thought you could do this in Logic with transformers etc.. Or is the
problem just that the data needs to be spread across multiple ports -before-
it gets to Logic's Physical Input? If that's the case wouldn't one of those
Fatar keyboards that can set up the splits internally would do the trick? Or
maybe there's a big difference midi ports and midi channels?
