I am using a DX21 ultimately I want to use the 21 as input and output fromthe CoCoMIDI out. I want to use the CoCo to process the sound in realtimeas it them goes to another device via MIDI.On Nov 18, 2016 3:14 PM, "Bill Pierce via Coco" <coco at maltedmedia.com>wrote:> Michael, what kind of synth do you have?> Older synths are not "General Midi" compatible and harder to write for,> where as newer synths provide "General Midi" sounds and make things nmuch> easier.> To write any MIDI program, one must know the specific MIDI implementation> for that particular keyboard (if not General Midi).> Both Lyra and Ultimuse3 cover all this in their user MIDI settings,> Ultimuse3 being the more versatile of the two.>> To be honest, I don't know why one would want to play from the Coco> keyboard, being limited to single note, 2 octave (at the most using all 4> rows) and no velocity info, when they can just play the MIDI keyboard> instead.... unless you're using a keyless MIDI module.>>>>>>> Bill Pierce> "Charlie stole the handle, and the train it won't stop going, no way to> slow down!" - Ian Anderson - Jethro Tull>>>> My Music from the Tandy/Radio Shack Color Computer 2 & 3> https://sites.google.com/site/dabarnstudio/> Co-Contributor, Co-Editor for CocoPedia> http://www.cocopedia.com/wiki/index.php/Main_Page> Global Moderator for TRS-80/Tandy Color Computer Forums> http://www.tandycoco.com/forum/>> E-Mail: ooogalapasooo at aol.com>>>>>>> --> Coco mailing list> Coco at maltedmedia.com> https://pairlist5.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/coco>-- Coco mailing listCoco at maltedmedia.comhttps://pairlist5.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/coco
