Please, add your questions to this FAQ. And of course, if you can add/improve and answer, do it! ;-)
Should I try to play a MIDI track with Zynthian as a multi instrument expander (different instruments on different channels)?
If I have such a setup: how can I store it?
You can create such a setup by using the channel list and configuring different presets on each channel. This will work with the next Synth Engines:
+ ZynAddSubFX + LinuxSampler + FluidSynth
setBfree tries to emulate the original Hammond B3 configuration. It has a fixed setup of 2 manuals (upper and lower) and pedals, arranged in channels 1, 2 and 3.
With Carla, the channel list doesn't work, but you can setup a MIDI splitter/router inside Carla and configure different plugins/effects in each channel or create more complex setups. No limits (well, CPU ;-).
Remember that currently you can only work with one engine at a time, but using Carla you can load all the engines as plugins, so you may be using Carla for your complex multi-engine setups.
Currently, it's not possible to save Zynthian status, that includes multi-channel setups. It would be implemented as soon as possible. In the other hand, Carla patches can be saved an restored without problem, including controller mapping and assignment.
