Nordlead 2x and waldorf rack

[sentokan]

Hi guys!

I have this problem: I have a Waldorf MicroQ rack which has 16 parts; I want to play some parts(sounds) using the keyboard of my beloved NordLead and the rest to be played be a sequencer.

So, I set it up as follows: midi out of the sequencer to midi in of nordlead, midi out of the nordlead to midi in of the waldorf rack.

Unfortunatelly it doesn't work. Can't nordlead use the midi out as a midi thru(merge)?

Thank you all!

Indeed, the NL2 has no Midi Through, which isn't a merger, BTW
You'll need a merger, for sure, if you want your set-up to look like 'some sounds to be controlled by the NL-Keyboard and some other sounds by the sequencer'.
Even if the NL had a Midi Through it would send the MidiNotes info using the MidiOut, not using the Through, so a merger is needed.

thanks man! u know there are synths which can do the job without merger, like novation x station? cause I was gonna buy one.

The Novation X Station is a Midi Controller with a synth build in.
Read the Manual carefully:

I know, but doesn t have the abiliyt to merge too,? From what I read in the manual it does, just don't have enough experience with these things to know for sure. Maybe u can take a look.

Thanks so much!!

As far as I know it has the capability to merge Midi signals, but please don't nail me down to it At least the Manual shows us it can...
