Hi Group
I have a Question regarding the Nord Wave 2
Is it Possible to send a midi Sequence from my DAW and trigger all 4 Layers?
If i choose the same Midi Chanel for all Layers in the Midi Settings, it doesnt seem to work.
Am i missing something?
I basically want to play with one Midi Track, all 4 Layers to create a complex Pad Sound.
Thanx in advance
Kevin

Re: Sending 1 Midi Track to all 4 Layers in Wave 2
Hi Kevin and welcome on this forum!
I don't own a Nord Wave 2 but I had a look at the Nord Wave 2 manual.
The only interesting thing that I can find about the midi settings is the Global MIDI settings and Layer MIDI settings:
On my Nord Stage 2 I can select if I send/receive on the MIDI DIN ports or on the MIDI USB port. Not sure if that is applicable for the NW2 as well.
So I guess you can use the Global MIDI for receiving the midi file information from your DAW.
Do you see the midi led blinking on your NW2 when your DAW is playing/sending the midi file?

GLOBAL MIDI CHANNEL
By using the Global MIDI Channel, all MIDI notes and Control Change messages can be transmitted and/or received on a single MIDI channel. MIDI that enters the Nord Wave 2 on the Global MIDI channel will play all the Layers that are active.
LAYER MIDI CHANNELS
Use the individual Layer MIDI channels on the Nord Wave 2 for individual control of each Layer, both for notes and for panel parameters. This
can for example be used in a multitimbral setup, controlling 4 individual sound sources from a sequencer.
(A Layer does not have to be active in a Program to receive MIDI, it will always respond to incoming MIDI on its MIDI Channel. This makes it possible to control selected Layers from the keyboard, and other Layers from other external sources.)
The Layer channels can also be used for sending MIDI, when the Global MIDI channel is set to Off. See page 32 for information on how to
make these settings.

Yes, using the Global channel for Midi should allow all layers to be triggered simultaneously on that channel.
