Special configuration for keyboards without split function
Split functions, i.e. dividing the keyboard into zones with different MIDI send channels and possibly
transposing the notes, should normally be provided by the controlling MIDI master keyboard. To
use the expander with keyboards that do not support split functions themselves, you can use the
update function in the HX3.5 Editor to optionally install the older scan driver "scanmidi_split.dat"
on the HX3 MIDI Expander. The split functions described in the following section will then be
executed by the HX3 Generator.
With the "scanmidi_split.dat" driver, however, it is not possible to use the GM instruments.
