Hi.

Is it possible to assign different MIDI channel to every voice in "harmony"?
My goal is for example, assign Trumpet to first voice, Sax to second and Trombones to third.

Thanks.

In the Harmony Maker dialog, you can choose Chan A, B, or C. There is not a way to change the MIDI channel number inside of the Harmony Maker.

To change the MIDI channel numbers of each of the tracks in the mixer, you can do so under Options | Preferences | Channels.

The Harmony tracks can be set on different MIDI channels but I don’t recall if this dialog box allows you to set those channelsndividually.

I could see this potentially being done using the new Utility Tracks in BIAB 2021, and assigning different patches, but you would have to edit each track to remove the unwanted parts.

I also recall there is a setting to save the Harmony parts onto separate tracks. Perhaps taking that into a DAW is the way to go.

Without experimenting, these are just guesses and there may well be a way to do it within BIAB. Perhaps explore the SEQ button.

Relay would be good idea to add this possibility.

PS: great to see this Forum is active and kicking.

Please don’t conclude yet that it isn’t possible. Let’s see if someone else knows.

Is that the Kontakt player, or similar?

Yes, you have what I first referred to. What I don’t know is how the Harmony is split up. For example, if you select a four-part voicing, how does that get placed on different MIDI channels in BIAB where you can change the patch?

According to what I understand, it should be able to split into three channels.
melody on Chanel A4, and the other voices you can be assign into two other channels - B11 and C12.
The default is all in A4.
Unfortunately B11 and C12 doesn't work for me.

Eureka!!!

I'ts working.

You have to choose A4 for melody, A11 for second voicing and A12 for third voicing.
By this, you can assign different instrument to each voice, fore example:
Melodie-trumpets section
second voice - Sax section
Third voice - trombones.
