question on using multiple MIDI channels for VCV Host

Music & Patches

Does anyone having experience with VCV and Synful Orchestra VST? I use VCV Host to control the VST but as I understand I had to send my MIDI messages on various MIDI channels to use various instruments.

Shall I

  • convert the CV of my sequencer into MIDI messages and then
  • convert it back to CV and
  • send them to the VCV Host?

I’m totally lost. I am at a point that I think I just use a separate host for every instrument in the Synful VST. Not the most efficient but I don’t have a better idea.

Or alternatively using one VCV MIDI-CV module per MIDI channel…

If I understand correctly, this use case is not possible with VCV Host. I put in a feature request for this some years ago, but it looks like it’s not high priority enough. I would suggest echoing a feature request to support@vcvrack.com.

You can use a separate Host module for each sound like in this example:
