OK... here is my dilemma:

I am trying to have 2 Midi Controllers. I have a keyboard and my MPC2000XL that I would like to control different synths. Sometimes I want to be able to use the MPC to play (record) drums, sometimes I want to be able to use my keyboard for pad, horn, synth sounds basically.

I don't want to have to change midi cables every time. I have a Midi Thru Box and I have a Terratec EWS88MT soundcard. I also have the Planet Phatt, Alesis D4, Orbit, ESI200, Nanobass, Dr 5, and some other synths.

How exactly would I set up my Midi Cables to do this. My keyboard has one out, one in and thru. The MPC has in/out A & in/out B. I believe the MPCs in/outs are totally independent.

HELP!!! PLZ.

Thanks in advance.
 
This would probably get more responses in the MIDI forum.
 
Depends

Don't know if you received another answer on another post...
But, it depends a bit more on your setup...
I have two different keyboards that I use...
Both are plugged into my MIDI interface (Emagic AMT8 / Opcode MidiPort 96)... And when I select one or the other, to play - The computer does the switching...

What kind of Interface do you have for your system?
