Multi Mode Program Change

  • I am using a Virus TI Keyboard with a Squarp Pyramid sequencer.


    When in multi-mode, a part which is set to be disabled still responds to MIDI messages, however it does not respond to program change messages.
    So, you can use the Virus keyboard to play a sound, have a sequencer play one of the 'disabled' parts, but you cannot get the sequencer to change the program of that 'disabled' part.


    It follows that 'disabled' actually refers to whether the part is triggered from playing the keyboard, as the part responds to MIDI messages, whatever this setting is.
    This seems inconsistent with not being able to send program change messages to a 'disabled' part.


    The only way I have partially got round this is by setting the Config | Keyboard mode to Single Channel, but this limits the Virus to only sending out MIDI from the keyboard on one channel which does not give many options for more complex set up.


    Many thanks.
