MPC4000 Midi CC Control

Recently, I realised that within the modulation matrix, it is possible to assign (external) midi continous controllers to destinations of your liking.

Then I set up my EMU command station, which is capable of sending out CC data. Each controller has its own CC number and midi channel number. I had the idea to always use the same CC numbers within every program. For instance:

CC ab: always to filter
CC cd: always to cutoff
CC ef: always to pitch

Then, to distinguish between PROGRAMS within the MULTI just by the corresponding MIDI channel.

Long story short: I always seem to edit the current channel, instead of the cc's corresponding midi channel.


I couldn't check so far, but it is possible that I have to set MIDI IN to SAMPLER instead of SEQUENCER (after reading feline's comments about his LFO syncing issues)? In MISC SCREEN, active track receive channel is set to ALL.

TSR

yep,
you got it: go to [MIDI] mode, [ROUTING] page,
and set MIDI in-I > SAMPLER Int-A
(or MIDI in-II > SAMPLER-Int-B )

That way, whatever MIDI message you send will be recieved by the various parts in the currently selected Multi, as per each parts' Receive channel (1A - 16A or 1B - 16B)
as set in [MULTI] mode [MIDI] page.

If you instead route IN-I or IN-II just to SEQUENCER,
then the MPC actually re-channelizes the incoming MIDI messages and
sends them to the destination specified by the currently displayed Track in the sequence
shown in [MAIN] mode.

would you have to set this up for each program every time?


could you create a template so that it is always the same?
