Re: [xpantastic] Emulating OB 4 Voice Rotate Mode on Xpander

2013-12-15 by Omar Torres

:p, that's what I said in my first email. "set your zones to rotate". if you want each voice to trigger a different patch setting, then switch to "multi" mode and select a different patch for each voice slot. multi-mode combined with zone rotate gives you exactly what you explained you're after.
