Expander on upper tracks

Post by mauro05 »

Ciao,
i'd like to play a Virus TI on the upper part of the Pa1x.
Is there a fast way to mute all upper 1 to3 on the kayboard and just send the midi out signal to the expander, in a way to play pa1x style chords on the left?

Thanks
Mauro

Hi Mauro

I have a similar requirement on my PA1XPro when playing my Karma via MIDI.
What I have done is create a SOUND with its volume set to "0" (zero) and I just select that sound when I want to hear the Karma only.
I can then use volume sliders etc to control the volume of the Karma.

There may well be a better way but this works fine for me.

Hope this helps

Cheers

Pete :D

Pete, i guess thats the only way. I would talk ore about it but i have to write
a whole book, even though the PA series have the BEST MIDI routing for now
of all KORG and rest of the synths thats still a suicidal mission. It just wont
work easy, everytime you turn the volume on PA off it will turn off on the
other synth. If you create 0 volume programs then how the hell would you
send program change messages? You need to use all of the USER are just
for 0 volume programs, i say dont even think about it and I KNOW EXACTLY
WHY I AM SAYING THIS.

Good Luck!
