Title: How to assign midi channels
Post by: m31asy on November 26, 2025, 09:37:13 PM
Hello eveyone,

I m new to vArranger, and i m missing an important part in the description.
How can i assign midi channels to left and right when using one keyboard, and the Keyboard is using midi channel 4.

Changing the midi channel of the keyboard is no solution because i ve an Cubase setup with all assigned midi channels.
There must be a solution to use midi 4 for the complete keyboard in vArranger with the splitpoint for left and rigth, same as on a real keyboard.

I m thankful for all help and suggestions.

Thank you

vArranger is reading on midi channel 1 and no split on the keyboard.
The split is done inside vArranger

It will be more easy to change and adapt a bit your project on the Cubase side, than on vArranger (adding a midi software in between)

I m not using Cubase alone. I use Ableton live 12 suite, Giglad, Kontakt, Aeturia Analog Lab, Rectangle and a lot other. I dont really like to change Midi channels all the time. 🥲
All Daws, Vsts and other Programs i know and using you can change the midi channels. I dont think its been that hard to add it, because when using organ mode you re able to change upper, lower and bass midi channel too.  So why not a common adjustable midi channel.

Thank you for your response.

sincerly

Some software has pages and pages of settings, but for vArranger, I try to keep it simple so the user just plugs the keyboard sits and plays music

99% of midi keyboards are sending on midi channel 1 when you plug them the first time, or has option for channel 1

If the midi channel selection was added, you can be sure that at least 30 users per year will change it, and will ask here why it is not working
