tenori-on with NM1

Hello peeps.
I just got myself a secondhand tenori-on and it's amazing!
I am trying to get it to control my micro but i bumped into the problem that the micro only recieves data on 1 midichannel at a time. Is there a solution to this?
The tenori-on could play 16 sequences at a time; each on 1 midichannel. I was hoping they could be any kind of data. So far i can only get it to send out pitch.
This could be the tenori, but i am hoping i am missing knowledge on the NM1 too.

So; This could probably be a very stupid question.
My sincere apologies in that case.

Don't know the tenori-on, but when it could send CC values you could use it to automate knobs in you patch.

When it is possible to restrict the sequences to certain note ranges you could maybe make patches with keyboard splits to get more than one sequence.

keyboardsplit is a good idea!
i dont think it sends cc-values though.
but everyone who ows a tenorion is begging yamaha to implement this into the next update.

this is the chart btw;

so like in a lot of softwaresynths where you can assign single instruments/tracks to a single midichannel isnt possible with the NM1?

I've tried using MidiMod and it works in a way, only the MidiNotes are added to each other, so Note 60 played together with another Note 60 will result in one Note 120 Smile

Strangely enough using only the NL2's Arpeggiators MidiNotes stay the same, only mute when played almost at the same time. In this situation all NL Slots send on the same channel.

Another finding is when in MidiMod (or G2 Midi set-up) only one MidiNote value is used together with more Gates, only the MidiNote/Gate (e.g. channel 1) will sound, where the other Gates remain silent...

thanks for your replies.
i gave up on the first idea.
i only own a mac, plus the sum of the cc's wouldnt really work i guess.

now i tried to hook up my tenori plus a doepfer pocketcontrol to the micro.
i did this through a newly bought midisolutions merger.
i was hoping the tenori could give the noteinfo and with the doepfer i could tweak the knobs. but no..
all the notes keep hanging or omething or like what wout had with the mentioned software midivalues are added up.

is what i want impossible?

You could look at other computer software that can do MIDI processing as well ... like Super Collider or ChucK - both are available for the Mac. Some programming would be involved then, but when doing e-music it never hurts to be able to do some programming.

ok. it works!
the only thing i had to do is switch the doepfer as the power supplying signal into the midimerger.

Jan> why dont you see a role for the midimerger here?
i want the pocketcontrol to control the knobs of the clavia and the tenori to give the noteinformation.
and this worked now.

the tenori is the "keyboard" and the doepfer does the rest of the tweaking.
yahoo!

now i want to save up for a DSI Mopho to fill another layer (midichannel) of the tenori.

(sorry, i am quite new with midi and this tenori-on is making it quite fun)
offcourse i could use all 16 channels of the tenori in a softwaresynth, but i dont have any)

omg i am such a sukkel! (and you were right jan)

the doepfer has a midithru offcourse. the midi-in of it allso works as a thru.
so i dont need the merger at all!

haha, guess i can sell it again rightaway.
so its just tenorion>doepferpc>NM1
