Hi Tom,

A VST host program called Cantabile allows you to take one midi channel, rechannelize it into two, and define a split point. You could load two instances of PTeq from there.

I know that there's also an audio and midi recording utility as well, but I haven't used it. perhaps it would meet your needs, and you could move things over to Sonar from there.

I could imagine the following: layer two instancens, i.e. put 2 instances on the same midi channel. One instance having the YC5, the other instance having the M3. Then adjust the volume range for YC5 in such a way that only the lower keys make sound and the volume range for the M3 for the higher keys. The volume ranges should overlap in the middle to blend them / make a transition.

Someone else another idea?

Cheers,
Herman

Hi folks,

Just found pianoteq! Amazing playability! I've poked around the forum a little bit and read many posts about having multiple instances open (in my case it's Sonar) and then tweaking the mixture of the two.

I'd like the bass from a YC5, and the upper register from a M3 Recording. I don't want to just put one on one midi channel ,and one on another, then cut the bass notes from my midi file, and paste them off onto a separate "bass track" where I have the Yc5 instantiated. That's cumbersome, and would also sound weird.

Just wondering what others are doing along these lines. ? I'm sure there is some way to get where I want to go, but I'm not that experienced . . .

There are so many permutations of pianoteq parameters. I have read several posts from helpful people on this forum, but I was wondering if anyone had a quick and dirty approach?

thanks very much!
