Hi LittleRigz,
Not at all a red herring, petedevries also stated it didn't work.
Which was/is correct
Samplerbox is a multitimbral instrument on its own via the voices feature.
Most midicontrollers send on one midichannel only (usually channel1), making it useless to define them as multitimbral in my opinion.
I've built multitimbral is a specific extension for attaching external sequencers (devices sending on more channels to enable more instruments simultaneously), which are translated to voices anyway.
Exceptions on above statement are the keyboards with drumpads, which you can enable generally (ie device independent).
Mind that by defining a device as multimbral, you will loose the majority of nice features.
Please read docs on midi modes and the multimbral channel map for extensive details, between them you'll also find a chapter on the drumpad solution.
Regards, Hans
