Monitor Object
A monitor objects displays all events (MIDI and meta) passing through it. It remembers
the last 32 events, with the newest events shown at the bottom of the list. You can
resize it to show from 1 to 32 events. Clicking anywhere in the body of the monitor
clears all events.
To create a monitor object:
m Choose New > Monitor (or use the New Monitor key command).
Monitors are very handy as both testing and branching devices. When coupled with
objects that have functionally different outputs (channel splitters and mapped
instruments, for example), monitor objects can be used to attach more than one
output cable to the same function.
Channel Splitter Object
A channel splitter routes MIDI events by channel. Every MIDI event received at the
channel splitter input is automatically routed to the output that corresponds to its MIDI
channel.
If no cable is connected to the corresponding output channel, the event is re-routed to
the SUM output (at the top).
To create a new channel splitter object:
m Choose New > Channel Splitter (or use the New Channel Splitter key command).
