Hi There,
A friend of mine has an old arranger keyboard and wants to use it to record backing tracks to play guitar with. Now I've got it slaved to Logic via MIDI clock which is fine, and I can record the MIDI coming in which is also fine. However, the keyboard outputs full arrangements (bass, drums, organ etc...) and assigns the notes different MIDI channels so that a standard general MIDI device would know what to play.
Now once the MIDI is recorded, I understand how to split it by channel from the MIDI menu, however I'm missing a standard GM instrument to play back the information correctly.
Does one exist?
The plan is to have a GM device playing back the arrangement whist recording, then to split the midi into multiple GM devices. then one by one, replace the GM devices with nice EXS24 instruments.
I know this is all very long winded but this is the way that my friend wants to work and I've told him there must be a way to do it (musn't there?)
Any help would be great.
