Hello John,
Sorry - I can't remember exactly what you originally asked, so I hope this is roughly the information you need.
First for the current version:
- You can assign any organ manual/pedalboard to any MIDI device and channel.
- All draw-knobs (stops/couplers) must send MIDI note on/off messages, and all must send on the same MIDI device and channel, with different note numbers to distinguish them apart. The device and channel can be adjusted in Hauptwerk. The note numbers can be changed by editing the .organ files if necessary.
- All divisional combination pistons must send MIDI program change messages, and the device and channel must match that of the manual/pedlaboard for the division. The program change numbers can be changed by editing the .organ files in a text editor if necessary.
- General combination pistons are 'listened for' on all active MIDI devices and channels (e.g. all that are configured for any other purpose, such as those for the manuals), and must also send program change messages. The program change numbers must be globally unique to the organ, and can also be changed by editing the .organ files.
Version 2:
Any MIDI configuration that works with version 1 will work with version 2. In general, all restrictions are lifted, and any switch (draw-knob, key, piston, ...) can be made to respond to any type of MIDI message and on any device and channel. There is no longer a need to edit the organ definition files to make such assignments.
Martin.
