@@joey42 i tried, but the octa midi program change cant seem to be pared with it. even when u try to put an X at the P (Midi Menu of EMX), it's strange cause a ESX can program change the EMX and visa versa but the octatrack cant? I don't get this

@@astro_poly so you do want the octatrack, to trigger a program change in the emx1, e.g. from A01 to A02. Right? Actually I just got my emx back from repair and I need to reinstall my MIDI chains with it. So far I used the Octatrack to add some more random drums into the emx loops, but have not changed a pattern. I find it much easier to do this live on the hardware. However, I will look into this... but it will take some days, since I need finish some other projects first.

@@joey42 No problem, that would be lovely! I don't think it's possible directly, dont know why this is. I tried every possible method, midi channel, from octatrack, from DAW. In forums no one seems to figure this out and the conversation always stops halfway. I'm very curious about your way into this and would love to know how when you find out! Tnx in advance!

@@astro_poly have you checked the MIDI Filter settings of the EMX? The program change needs to be transmitted on the MIDI Chanel for Synth1
