MPE with OB-6 / Prophet-6

Post by denoise » Sat Feb 27, 2021 9:27 pm

Hi,

I'm trying to control a Sequential OB-6 with MPE data with Ableton, but it looks like it's impossible to limit the MIDI channels transmitted to only 2-7, which results in some voices being silent. Ableton cycles through all channels (2-16) when sending MPE and the OB-6 is programmed to hear only channels 2 to 7 for MPE operation.

Does anyone know any solution for this problem?

Ableton needs to update the code to allow multiple channel selection for external instruments, versus just 1-16 or MPE. It’s a bummer. I was excited for MPE support in 11, but I use a Linnstrument, OB-6, and an Iridium (w/ MPE via beta firmware), so I’ll stick with Logic/Bitwig.
