Is it possible to play notes with the midi keyboard ?

Post by Simontemplar » Wed Feb 17, 2010 5:07 pm

Hey this might be a stupid question but is it possible to play like different notes with nepheton using the midikeyboard ? Just like you would on a synth ? because i only get like a layout on the midi keyboard with different sounds. and i would like to play something with the sub/kick on different notes. Thx :)

Sure, stop it, uncheck Int Seq.
Now its in midi mode and takes in key commands in a general midi drum mapping style.
When you are in Live for example, a drum rack grid is mapped and you can what keys do what drum.
Now grab the manual and read along while you are doing it. Also because you might want to change the drum mapping to something more scale oriented.

One more thing...

This feature is disabled in demo version.

Best regards,

Thx for the explenation but i still dont get it. Maybe i didnt explain it good enough. for example i want to play the bassdrum in different octaves but when i press down the keys on the right of the bassdrum i get a snare or whatever sound.

Even in fully activated version it's not possible, those all are drum sounds without possibility of pitching them playing on different notes. You can only make different mapping so bass drum can be
triggered using different keys, but it always will play with the same base pitch. If you want to play drum sounds with different base frequency you need to automate Drum Machine's parameters.

Best regards,
