Route MIDI notes to different VST instruments depending on pitch
I'd like to split my MIDI keyboard controller so that different octaves are mapped to different VST instruments. For example, notes 48–59 play an organ sound, and notes 60 and up play a piano sound. I don't need aftertouch or anything fancy, just pitch and velocity.
I got it working with the following patch, but it feels clumsy. Is there a better way to achieve this?

Here's one way using [split]:

you could also divide the note number / 12 and control a [gate~ 5] with it.
Very helpful! I was able to get it working based on LSKA's [split] example. Thanks for the explanation.
