CV 16 & External Keyboard

[sak-rwsd]

Hi, I don’t think I ever figured this out with my CV 16 Expander.  Can I use an external keyboard, say the Keystep, and play notes the way I can with a modular track?  Thanks!

Yes with Midi you get also multiple polyphonic options then.

For some reason, I can’t get my keyboard to play my module (Akemie’s Taiko) when in a CV 16 track.  I have no problem playing this module from a regular modular track, but I want the CV 16 to open up more modulation options.  I have the tracks first and second destinations as Track CV, using the first for CV and the second for triggers (using “TT2”).  Any thoughts on what I’m doing wrong?  Thanks!

I assume you use midi.
You got to set up how Midi should affect the columns in the CV16 track setup. It will be able to generate  Notes and envelopes which you can use as triggers.

Hi, Maybe I’m doing something silly, but I can’t for the life of me get it to work.  I’ve never been able to do so with CV16 tracks (but have no problem with the same modules running as modular tracks).  I am using MIDI and have the MIDI out of my Keystep going into the MIDI in of the I/O expander.  Under “Input/Record Setup” I have MIDI Channel 4 set as Track 4 Record.  When I have the Keystep on MIDI Channel 4, nothing happens.  The Track CV 4 goes to Akemie’s V/Oct and the Track 4 Trigger to Akemie’s Trigger in (not using the CV16 for this part, only the modulation).  I can play sequences just fine from here (I just want to be able to hammer out melodies).  I’ve set up Track 5 as a modular track (with MIDI Channel 5 set as Track 5 Record) and when I take this track’s CV and Trigger and plug it in the Akemie’s, the Keystep plays it just fine.  I hope that makes sense.  What am I doing wrong?
