Hi,

I own and enjoy my Hermod for a few months and there’s one thing I can’t seem to wrap my head around :  
How do you play different Tracks with different controllers ? I.e., do you always have to select the Track prior to play notes ? Or is it possible to affect different MIDI-channel to different tracks ?

thanks,

atis

Settings → midi channels

(active track = selected track , so how you are working at the moment)
