Prog/Combi change from external device

Post by kashunator »

Hello everyone,
I have a setup consisting of a Kurzweil K2600 and a Triton LE88
I'm controlling the Triton from the Kurz via Midi.
What I'm trying to achieve is to change the patches on the Triton without also playing the Triton sounds from the Kurz.
I got as far as changing the patch. Midi send/receive channels are matched, I made all the necessary settings in the Kurz so whenever I select the appropriate patch on the Kurzweil, the Triton also changes to the patch that I need. But then if I play the Kurz, the Triton sounds are also played. I want to be able to change the patch on both keyboards from the Kurz, but play the sounds of each device from their respective keyboards only. It doesn't seem to be possible. Anyone any ideas?
Thanks in advance

The MIDI-Solutions Event Processor will do this.

It needs to be programmed using the free MIDI Solutions programming software. The software can be downloaded to see its functionality, and have a play with it.

The software needs to be set to filter a MIDI event, the event being Note-on, whose value is X, and to filter all values of X. It is as simple as that. Then the Event Processor is programmed via MIDI. The code then remains in the Event Processor, and it will filter out all note on messages. It is a simple matter to add further filters to block e.g. modulation wheel, joystick, and other messages from passing from the Kurzweil to the Triton.

Thanks for the answer!
Unfortunately - unless I badly misunderstood something - this would involve a computer. I need to implement this thing in a live situation keyboard to keyboard with a simple midi cable. Now it there is a device, like a more sophisticated midi interface that can do the job, it's cool, I'm buying one. But I would hate to have to use a computer in my setup (if I did, it would open up a crapload of different possibilities but it would be too complicated).

OK I just checked this thing and it seems to be the solution. I would have loved it if there was some setting in the menu of the Triton to do the job but if there isn't one, I'll probably buy the MSEP
Thank you!

Sorry it wasn't clear enough that the MIDI Solutions Event Processor doesn't need a computer during use. The computer is only needed for programming the event filters once to set it up. Neither does it need any external supply, since it gets sufficient power from the MIDI data pins.
