Sequencing the Virus
 

Ok, I've now played with my Indigo 2 a few days, and now I want to sequence it from my Yamaha Rm1x.

I've run into a strange problem:

I'm working in either Multimode og single-multi mode (I've tried both).

I've made 3 simple phrases on 3 different midi channels on the RM1x:

Channel 1: x...x...x...x...
Channel 2: ..x...x...x...x.
Channel 3: x.................

Now the problem is that the Virus only plays back one note at a time.

The Rm1x is sending on 3 different midi channels, and the Virus is recieving on the same 3 channels.

It seems that as soon a new note is played, the previous one is cut...

Any suggestions on how tol solve this problem... it's really annoying me! :c)

Well, I guess if you're using a lot of unison in voices, it's possible that you're running out of polyphony, but that's probably not the case. I don't know anything about your Yamaha unit, but my guess would be that it's sending note-off's. You should check out your list of MIDI events and check for these first. Also make sure the patches you're using in the virus aren't monophonic.

Hmmm, maybe I solved it myself...

It seems that the 'program change' I inserted cuts the note!!
Any tips on how to avoid this then? :)

Oh, BTW thanks for your reply, didn't see it because I was writing my own :)

No, I'm not using up polyphony, I have a standard bass and a kicksound and some strange patch I made myself :)
