<div>Thanks Martin for the reply, </div>

<div>so you mean that if i plug them both together, the second one will automatically transmit and receive note on and off messages on midi channel 17? Is PD that does this conversion automatically? </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Sorry if i'm being insistent but I'm obviuously missing something here and I don't get it completely.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Cheers. p.</div>

<div bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#666666">If you plug them in together they will appear as 2 separate midi devices, each using its own 16 midi channels from 1 to 16. If you set up pd to use these 2 midi interfaces you will have channels 1 to 16 for the first device and channel 17 to 32 for the second one. You can do your merging inside pd then or if you favor to do so use software outside pd.<br>

<div>Hi all.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I would like to connect 2 Novation Launchpads to my computer (OS X 10.4) to make a 128 out of two 64.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The problem is: Launchpad sends midi info on channel 1 and there's no way a user can change that (at least there's no info on that in the programmer's reference manual). So, the two launchpads would be indistinguishable.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Does anyone know how to workaround the problem? I know that in Max there's the [midiin] object that permits the user to select which midi device to listen to. Is there anything similar in PD (even tho a quick look at the Floss Midi Object list seems to suggest that there's none) (btw, i got the [midiin] hint by the creator of the monopad, which is a software useful to connect more than one launchpad in Max <a href="http://teamaxe.co.uk/code/monopad/index.php" target="_blank">http://teamaxe.co.uk/code/monopad/index.php</a>) </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Creating an aggregate device of the two launchpads in CoreMidi could do the trick?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I would try that myself but i own only one launchpad and I'm scared of buying another and then discover there's no way to distinguish between them. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks for any help,</div>
