Hi Nathan! There are a couple of different ways to do this, I think. You can either assign a different MIDI note to each voice, or a different channel. It will depend on the pads you are using which channels and note numbers will be best. Good luck!
Hi!!! I enjoy the 0.37 firware a lot!! Does the 0.37 works with Bastl’s 60 Knobs? Thanx!!
btw i think mpc and lxr is a nice combo. your vid is the best example!
hi,
i found your website an your videos on youtube. great stuff!
one question, sir: how do you connect and midi sync the lxr and the mpc?
thanks.
Hi!
Glad you enjoyed them 🙂 The MPC is acting as the MIDI master and the LXR is slaved. The LXR has to be set to BPM 0 and the rx filter has to be set to something with an ‘R’ in it (for realtime). The MPC I think has to be set to ‘Master’ in the ‘Sync’ options. They can be directly connected, but I tend to run things through a MOTU micro express – a huge headache saver for MIDI – when I’m at home. The MPC1000 is a great sampler/sequencer for sure! I’ve switched to an Octatrack for now, but the decision was almost entirely based on it having more audio inputs :D. Not that I’m complaining about the other stuff though!
hey, i´m working in a similar project as you did with the midi shield.
i would need some help with that. well i might have a little budget for that. let me know if you´re interested.
cheers
