Radium

Hello all,

I am trying to send midi messages to certain instruments using common music by specifying midi channel. I was just curious if there was a way to do this. I want to use radium as my rack of instruments and effects. Is there an option to enable midi input to an instrument only with a certain midi channel?

Thank you very much for your time!

Hi, there isn't a built-in option to only receive messages with a specified channel number, but you can use one of the pizmidi vst plugins to do this, for instance. It's a little bit inconvenient, but it should work.

So, I tried doing this with a pd patch. Is there a way to specify that only one instrument receives midi without everything it is connected to downstream? I am a little confused with how midi is received in radium.

Are you asking if there's a way to prevent MIDI input to be forwarded to all event-connected sound objects? In case, yes, that's the "T" button right next to the name of the object in the instrument widget.

Thank you Kjetil, I will try that out, and if I run into any trouble I will get back to you.

Better alternative to pizmidi is Midi Polysher.
Nice GUI, lightweight and very flexible. And free of course....
