Sending Sustain on Multiple MIDI Channels

[reed]

Is it possible to send sustain message on multiple midi channels? Thanks

[Rob]

Not currently, no. I'll put that down as a feature request.

Thanks for listing this as a feature request. Does this mean you can implement it to all the existing models? If so, I hope that you can implement it in the near future. BTW, I have just purchased a MIDI Expression IO, which is my 3d ME. Thanks

[Rob]

Can I ask you what the use case for this feature is?

[reed]

I play a midi accordion, and all midi/digital accordions send out midi on multiple channels. The ME devices can be expecially handy for midi accordion players as they most of the time do not have a way of sending sustain. If it is not too much trouble, I hope this feature will be included in the next update. Thanks a lot.

I started implementing this today. It'll be available in version 2.5 which will likely be done in about a month's time. Let me know if you are interested in testing this feature. If you are, I'll have it ready to go before the weekend.

Regards,
Rob

Wow, this is super nice, Rob! I will begin to mention this on a couple of midi/digital accordion forums. Yes, I'd love to try it out before its pubic release.
