Is there a way to change the channel assignment for notein, bending and ctlin dynamically, i.e., send a message to change the channel in real-time. Is this correct? Is the only solution to script to destruction/recreation of the objects?

Otherwise, just put 16 objects of each, one per MIDI channel and use [gate] or [route] to correctly distribute the incoming data to the appropriate objects.

I agree that a dynamical channel assignment for notein, bendin and ctlin would be a very useful feature!

Scripting is one possibility.

Thanks. I already have scripting in place from a while ago. I'm revisiting the patch and wanted to make sure nothing's changed. In retrospect, I think 16 objects with a gate would have been easier to maintain.

Much more easier as sub-patchers, embedded patchers or as bpatchers, indeed!

While waiting for this feature included in the midi objects... ?

An abstraction the encapsulates channelizing is pretty easy. Save this as something like notein_ch, and use it where you want to change channels. This is untested, but I imagine it will function, although it may take a little tweak:

And to use just one object, channelize [midiparse] outputs.

But one object with a gate should be enough, just an example for ctlin

But one object with a gate should be enough, just an example for ctlin
with changeble args:

Without testing I'd say it might struggle with argument 0 (to pass all 

channels) and the first argument could be just the channel...
