Maschine + and external midi

Robert Glotzbach

I am trying to hook up my Befaco VCMC midi controller to the Maschine+.

I want different triggers to translate to midi notes to play a drum patch.

For the life of me, I am unable to work this out. Am I correct that it's impossible to use one midi channel and have different midi notes trigger different sounds? I can see that different channels are assigned to the different sound, but have a feeling that this only applies to the maschine sending out those midi channels when hitting the pads.

Many thanks, robert glotzbach

You have to set up the Group to Route incoming MIDI notes to Sounds.

CHANNEL / MIDI --> GROUP --> Input --> Routings --> Drumkit or Manual

Probably Manual so you can choose the base note to your requirements.

This is already a great help, Thank you :-)

I was looking for a possibility to now also change the midi-note input per sound, but on the 'Sound page', I only see Audio source and Gain as an option. I guess I'm stuck with that, right?

Best regards, robert

The MIDI settings for a Sound only allow to change the input Source and Channel.
