hi

could you please give scaler  
a midi-channel option, so that it can be used  
on multi-channel instruments in logic pro.

so far scaler always sends on midi channel 1.

thank you.

Will this handle Divisi ?

Cubase is lacking any kind of way of making divisi…  
( only one i found is an external/virtual midi loop to a Max instance running a divisi patch… which is not really “quick workflow” friendly )

I this can do first note \> 1, second 2, third 3 and so on…  
that would be sooo helpfull for previewing 3 or 4 part strings writing with kontakt banks !

I think a big midi overhaul is due but it will take a while to get it right and not make it an afterthought. In the meantime there are several workarounds, some take you out of the ecosystem but still 100% effective. I think we have to focus on refining the big features we have and making Scaler 2 more accessible to all in the interim
