RE: [xl7] Re: Using the MP7 to control external sound modules

2007-06-04 by Chris

This is actually done in the very same menu..
 
In the Pattern Edit menu one of the last menu-settings is called "assign
channels" (or similar, i'm currently not at my gear) and in the bottom
row, it shows you the selected midi channel on the left and "dest:" on
the right.. the values for "dest" can be set to "int", "ext" and
"both".. i guess it's self-explaining that "int" means internal, "ext"
stands for external and when having the value at "both", the data is
used for as well internal, as external communication..
 
i actually use the "both" setting quite often, to combine the sounds
from my roms with pads on my samplers or other gear..

Thanks Chris,
I 'm going to be testing that setup today. My final question to you is
does it lose the ability to send both signals at that point, which
seems pretty much obvious - but I have to ask any way.
