Several instruments [MIDI]

hello dear fellow members,

ive succeeded setup arduino midi interface, software called ableton live 8.

now want take step further, playing different types of instrument using simple potentiometer.
the use of potentiometer ofcourse simple, dont part can change instrument.

ive read threads using search function, , read midi , how things work pages arduino.cc offers.

i have no clue do. in ableton can configure more 1 midi instrument, kno how activate em manually through computer. ive read channels, no know channel im configuring.

could some1 guide me through bit?

cheers!

the code need change midi voice this:-

code: [select]


//  change voice
void programchange(char cmd, char data1) {
  cmd = cmd | char(midichannel);  // merge channel number
  serial.write(cmd);
  serial.write(data1);
}
you need global variable called midichannel set channel want use
you need call function this:-

code: [select]

programchange(0xc0, 25);  // change midi voice guitar
