(English)
Hello everybody,sorry if I dont explain myself very well but the english is not my first language, so the thing is that I want to make a full included Keyboard Zynthian built in, but with the MIDI Input (example I want to use My dx7 to control this zynthian keyboard via MIDI) functionality and even use it like a MIDI controller (example I want use my Zynthian to control kontakt vst in FL studio)
Post Data, I have already all the componets of a V2 Zynthian, except the Hifiberry because in Mexico city they dont sell in a fisical store, only online (exported from Guadalajara, that In mexico we believe that buy online a fisical thing is problematic) so My local sellers offers me a DACZERO that doesnt work for zynthian, but the Daczero is the only available thing in fisical stores
Thanks in advance, greetings from Mexico DF

Perdon si no me explico bien pero mi primera lengua es el español, la cosa es que quiero fabricar un teclado con Zynthian completo, que yo por ejemplo sea capaz de controlar este teclado por decir algo conectarle el yamaha DX7 al MIDI IN del teclado combo hecho con Zynthian para controlarlo, o por ejemplo usar el teclado zynthian para controlar a otro dispositivo MIDI o conectarlo Via usb al PC para usar alguna libreria de KONTAKT en fl studio
por cierto, es dificil aca en el DF Mexico conseguir la Hifiberry DAC ya que en el DF no existen y hay que ir hasta guadalajara, lo que me ofrecen es la DACzero que por lo que he leido no sirve para nada con el Zynthian, de hecho es la unica pieza que me falta
les agradezco de antemano su atencion, saludos desde Mexico DF
From noob to noob: you can directly connect your DX7 to the Zynthian with a midi cable. You just need to configure on the Zynthian, via the graphic interface, which synthesizer engine you want and on which midi channel it should be connected. I read from Wikipedia that the DX7 can only send midi on channel 1, so… That’s it.
ukitel, I think that I dont explain myself very well
the thing is that I want to make a Zynthian built in Keyboard, one that allows me to be controlled by anonther MIDI device (ex UMX610), a zynthian built in keynboards that allows me to use it as a midi controller
It has MIDI DIN 5 Out and USB. I’m not very experienced with Zynthian (mostly built mine) but really just using a MIDI keyboard controller with the Zynthian would do what you are asking I believe? Zynthian has MIDI In/Out and Thru. Currently there isn’t a supported sequencer included in Zynthian but I’ve read there probably will be in the future. Meaning, right now you could only control Kontakt VST by actually playing your MIDI keyboard and it would pass thru the Zynthian. I am guessing you could play the keyboard and have FL Studio send MIDI to another instrument on the Zynthian by choosing different MIDI channels?
Sorry, just a lot of ideas. I don’t know if I helped. I don’t have a lot of experience using Zynthian yet. But I just wanted to clarify, it sounds like you are really just talking about hooking up a keyboard to Zynthian, you could PUT a Zynthian INSIDE a keyboard you build or modify, but it’s literally the same thing. If I understand you correctly.
Ok, this is the thing, the idea is create a Zynthian Combo, a Zynthian-Powered Keyboard Synth that let me use the MIDI OUT for record in a DAW for example (Fl studio) and, If I want to add another controller to control zynthiankbd (for example, the idea is that I have a Zynthian keyboard with IDK 61 keys?, and I conect a MIDI CONTROLLER of 88 Keys for example?)
I want to make a full keyboard powered by zynthian (onboard zynthian engine) with all the standard midi capabilities (MIDI IN, MIDI OUT and MIDI TRHU)
But I just wanted to clarify, it sounds like you are really just talking about hooking up a keyboard to Zynthian, you could PUT a Zynthian INSIDE a keyboard you build or modify, but it’s literally the same thing. If I understand you correctly.
