Re: Assign a multi to a pattern

2004-12-20 by steve_the_composer

Multisetups can be called up as bank switch/program change 
commands.  You simply do a bank change where the MSB is 80 [CC00] 
and the LSB is 00 [cc32] followed by a program change command to the 
number of the multi you want to select. [It is in the e-mu manual.]

When using a software sequencer you can embed the bank switch and 
program change commands in a track. I believe you can also do this 
with e-mu's on-board sequencer.

WARNING: Be careful what the called multi is setup to do. Multis 
change lotsa settings.

There may be other options for doing what you want.  I am a big fan 
of using a designated channel for FX! type presets--presets where 
all the layers have 000:none for the instruments, but whose FX 
settings are called on the fly with a program change to the 
designated channel.

Also, if you call a multi with the bank switch method, the changes 
may be abrupt, awkward, etc.

Hope this helps.
