Play Chords on single note MIDI Data?

Cubasis
#1

Hi all! New to the forums so sorry if I miss something important. I tried to google my issue and also looked through the forums.

I’ve a midi controller with pads hooked to my iPad. The pads send either MIDI CC events or single note MIDI events. I tried to MIDI learn Cubasis so that it plays chords from the build in pads (say for example when using the microsonic instrument). I want to map chords to the pads and play them using the hardware. But even with MIDI learn, Cubasis plays the single note rather than the chord assigned to the pad.

Is there any workaround for that? Thanks in advance!

Hi @InsaneZane,

Thank you for your message and welcome to the Cubasis forum!

But even with MIDI learn, Cubasis plays the single note rather than the chord assigned to the pad.

Please double check that the tracks which are triggered via the controller are set to pad mode, and does not show up with the full keyboard:

Does this help to resolve the problem?

Best,
Lars

Thank you very much for your message. I can confirm that the tracks are in pad mode.

I can assign the pads with the chord names on them to the hardware pads via MIDI learn. But once I exit learning mode it plays the single note again. Any ideas?
