6 channel MVC

Well that's it. I don't know if it;s possible but as i have a axon midi controller who outputs each string on a saperate channel i would really want an MVC which will provide me with an easy way to use the modular. 6 mono channels.

Alfonso made a 4 channel splitter. You can link 2 to have 6 but you'd still need 6 MVC. Hey, it saves 4 modules eh.

I have made some patches with 6 mvc's amd i have created a lot of projects with 6 times the instance of the synth i want to use and it works fine. What i really want to do is to avoid replicate the patches or create modulars with 6 different mvc's (and filters,oscs, all that stuff). I want to make a single patch with a special kind of an mvc which will receive midi on the omni channel and send it to the 6 (5 hidden) set of modules.(it's like having a synth with six voices but the mvc don't do voice allocation but pass the different channel data to the corresponding mono voice...
By the way i'm not sure how to use alfonso's module maybe it's something i don't understand... Thanx anyway

I'm sorry, alfonso's module doesn't do what you're after - it switches any incoming midi to the set channel when the switch is activated.

Yes, I know the problem, having 6 mono channels is necessary to have independent pitch bend for every string, so 6 mvc's are necessary.

By the way you can put all the filtering section after the 6 osc.+env+vca section.

I've done a modular for that purpose that is the lightest I could think of, also becouse it uses waldorf osc's, together with having the filtering part in common for all osc's.

Have a look:

So it isn't possible? By the way when you take the sdk kit can you `open` the modules?
I don't know anything on dsp coding but how complicated is an MVC (except the voice allocation algorythm), I don't have problem to work the way i do now (by creating projects for my midi controller) but it as a guitarist and a modular entusiast i trully would like something like this (except that it would be the first on the world... how bad is to expand the boundaries...)

Finished modules can't be open, because they are protected against it.

Anyway, dsp-wise a 6 voices or 6 istances of one voice are not so much different, is mostly a matter of real estate...
