Re.Midi commands

[toktiny]

Hi Sherry

My sincere thanks for you taking an interest in my problem. I do realise from your previous mail that my Notation Composer can not be used so you could have passed it off and advised me to look elsewhere, so for this I appreciate your help.

I downloaded the manual for the BCN44 and looked on the net for any further information. I would be using it as a Midi Merge and I came across the following report, which throws a little doubt as to its suitability;

“A point to note regarding using the BCN44 as a MIDI merge - the BCN44 is equipped with a MIDI in, for use primarily with a MIDI keyboard. The level of data traffic at the midi input should be relatively low. However - if the input device is a fully-fledged MIDI instrument - the level of data traffic is immense, and this can lead to blockages at the MIDI input buffer. In this application the BCN44 will not be adequate as a MIDI Merge function.”

I will have to be honest and say that my tech. knowledge of MIDI equipment is very limited as to compatability, manner of connection etc.etc.

I will look further into the suitability of this machine and come back and let you know how I get on. Again my thanks for your interest.

Kind regards

Toni
