Custom routing by MIDI channel

[Jesse Johannesen]

So we have been thinking about it and I can get most of the way there:

In Port 5 MIDI channel 1 -> Out Port 1 MIDI channel 1
In Port 5 MIDI channel 2 -> Out Port 2 MIDI channel 1
In Port 5 MIDI channel 3-6 -> Out Port 3 MIDI channels 1-4
In Port 5 MIDI channel 7-8 -> Out Port 4 MIDI channel 1-2
In Port 5 MIDI channel 9 -> Out Port 5 MIDI channel 10
In Port 5 MIDI channel 10+ -> Out Port 6 MIDI channel 1+

OK so maybe we do it like this:
lines one and two can be solved with C-P1 mod

Line three is a single Mod preset of MIDI Map
Exclusive Y
3>1
4>2
5>3
6>4


Line four is another MIDI MAP preset:
Exclusive Y
7>1
8>2
->-
->-

Line 5 is another preset
exclusive Y
9>10
->-
->-
->-

But then the last one is the one where I get stumped
We can't map 6 ports exclusively (the mods are applied in serial order, so having an exclusive on the first one would block the inputs to the second one, and having exclusive on the second would block out previously mapped channels as well), so it would end up merging the ports you reroute with the data that was already on those target channels.

I keep thinking there might be a way of looping back the midi and merging, but that is really hacky and complicated to boot.

OK so if we did out port 7 and applied a mod:
exclusive Y
10>1
11>2
12>3
13>4
then applied a mod to out port 8:
exclusive Y
14>5
15>6
16>7
->-

Loop outputs 7 and 8 back to inputs 3 and 4 and then route those two ports to 6, merging the two signals.

OK so it's possible, but it takes 2 extra inputs and output ports to do it (and 2 cables).
