Re-directable inputs


As covered in the MIDI input section, you can designate up to two MIDI keyboards to control multiple virtual keyboards, then being able to flip each of the two MIDI keyboards between the designated virtual keyboards. You can thus play sample sets with more virtual keyboards than you have MIDI keyboards.

The General settings | Re-directable keyboard MIDI inputs screen is used to define the MIDI keyboards:

Re-directable keyboard MIDI inputs


When a sample set is loaded the Organ settings | Connect re-directable keyboard MIDI inputs to organ keyboards screen is used to define which virtual keyboards are to be available as destinations for each of the MIDI keyboards:

Connect re-directable keyboard MIDI inputs to organ keyboards


Up to four possible routes can be defined for each of the two possible re-directable keyboards. Although you cannot insert or delete objects in the screen, you can simply leave the Organ keyboard set to 'none' for a route if you do not wish to use it.

When Hauptwerk is active, you can then flip the MIDI keyboard(s) between the available routes using the Functions | Select route N for re-directable keyboard M menu options:

Re-directable routes on the functions menu


The menu options can also be triggered by MIDI, so you could assign them to external MIDI program change buttons, for example. See the menus section for details.

The current selections for the two possible re-directable inputs are shown in the status bar at the bottom of the main window:
