Changing Midi Channels In Gb Options

[soehnk]

Hello,
how does one assign or activate different midi channels in Garageband within one track? I want to activate different midi channels available in Miroslav Philharmonik. How do I go about doing this?

Thanks.

MacDaddy, your faith in me is deeply touching but I don't know the answer to this one.
I don't think it's possible to open more than one midi channel per track in GB. Seems to me you have to open a new track for a new channel?

Unfortunately, GB doesn't actually handle multiple MIDI channels separately. Each MIDI track in GB is, in effect, 'listening' to all MIDI channels simultaneously. To get assignable MIDI channels for individual tracks, I believe you'll need to look at Logic Express 8 or Logic Studio.

I found this Apple discussions thread on assigning MIDI channels in Logic Express.

GB is a great 'sketch pad' for your works, but it sounds like you are already working above GB's bar, so to speak.

I have read some reviews on Apple's boards about SoundFont Synth GB, but I can't find definitive information on it accomplishing what you're looking for.

Wish there was better news.

peace.
