Help --- Please
I am looking for a not to expensive midi controller keyboard to add to my Kn7000. The ones I have seen and the one that I have will only send one channel at a time. I need a controller which will allow me to split the keyboard.
Example. C3 to G4 one channel. G#4 to C5. C#5 to G. This will give three areas which will to trigger three different channels (Instruments) on my Kn7000.
For Big Band can you imagine; Rt 1 Hi-trumpet – Rt 2 Full Brass – Left Hand Mellow Brass – 1st section on the controller plays Solo Trumpet – 2nd section plays a Trombone --- and the 3rd section plays a Clarinet.

During a song I can select one registration and have the instruments below ready to be played.
1-Hi-Trumpet
2-Full Brass
3-Mellow Brass
4-Solo Trumpet
5-Trombone
6-Clarinet
I do not want to spend a great deal for a Midi controller, it will be used in my home only,

John, you could do all of that with the KN7000 alone if you used panel memories for changing registrations.

I have a Roland Edirol PC-80 61 key midi controller that I could let you have for about $95 plus shipping. I still have the original box. Can't remember if it can split the keyboard. You could check specs on the net. I love the feel of that key bed.

John, there is a good listing of the PC-80 capabilities at this web page:

It does have both split and layer modes.
