Kenton midi patchbay pro#
Stuff I'm using: Umm right now, well there's a Volca Drum, a Micro Freak, an ADX-1, a Pulse, a Blofeld, a UNO Drum, KeyStep/Beatstep Pro/Keystep Pro (one of each), a Circuit, a LiveTrak L-12 and this nonsense: The Brief-case as it was about a bit over a year ago (the the complete ridiculous GAS monster collection here)and here With the BSP, if you want to do the same, you will need to hit play on the BSP so it sends a clock out, but that will also start every single Volca, which can be rather annoying sometimes. What that means is if you only want to program a sequence on one of your Volcas without running a sequence to it, it will run when you press it's play button regardless of if the Keystep is running or not. That said, I have three MIDI patchbays/routers, a MERGE4, a Phillip Rees V3 and several Novation controllers with a THRU and two output which can also act as THRU ports, making a total of 31 input ports and 46 output ports for MIDI routing and am probably going to get another 8x8 patchbay/router as soon as I do this month's invoicing.Īs far as the sequencer is concerned, I have both of the ones you mentioned and as much as the BSP is one of the two sequencing hearts of my setup, I'd recommend you get the Keystep only because all of the Volcas include an on-board sequencer, so you really only need a time source for them all to sync to and the Keystep sends MIDI clock when stopped whereas the BSP doesn't. A THRU25 will mean you can expand far beyond two THRU5's but I find that I rarely send the same MIDI stream to more than five devices. You can use two THRU5's to address nine MIDI devices, not ten, only because one of the outputs on the first will need to be sent to the second. I have a Merge4 and it does what it says very well. Or should I buy directly a more powerful gear like this?ĭoes anybody have some experience and can give me an advice for a solution that is not so expensive? Or is it possible to get 2 Kenton 5 Midi Thru Boxes and somehow connect 10 Midi Synth? When I am thinking of adding more Synths in the future how can I handle that? The gear should have the same qualitiy like the Kenton and should be not too expensive.

Now I am searching an alternative with more than 5 Midi Thru Ports. I want to control all with a Arturia Keystep or Beat Step Pro.Ī nice solution is the Kenton Splitter but it offers only 5 Midi Thru Ports. Posted: Sat 10:00 am Post subject: Which Midi Thru Solution for all Volcas ?
