I'm using Session Horns for live performance in Kontakt Player 7. My midi controller is a Nord Electro 5.
The Nord has one manual with split keyboard. Program change messages can only come from the same channel as the lower split, and the upper split can use a different channel if I choose. Because I want to play horns with my right hand, I only want my Session Horns to play on certain programs, on upper split only.
I see that I can put my Horns into an instrument bank so that only desired programs will use them, that's good. However, because the program change midi messages are coming from one channel (Nord global midi), and the key up/down messages are coming from a different channel (Nord upper split), I haven't found a way in Kontakt Player to both change bank instruments and play those instruments.
My program change messages are set to channel 1. My key up/down and control changes are set to channel 2.
Is there a way to configure Kontakt player so it will set the bank channel using channel 1, and play notes using channel 2?
