Hi folks,
this may sound a little weird but is it possible to mute keys on the MOXF generally to use them as control keys for a MIDI setup?

Turn Local Control “off”.

Sorry - my English isn’t that good ... I don’t think of all keys (I use local off sometimes) but of some (!) keys, lets say - as an example - C0-e0.

... I don’t think of all keys (I use local off sometimes) but of some (!) keys, lets say - as an example - C0-e0.

In general, setting the high Note Limit lower than the low Note Limit creates a number of “muted” keys. Easily applied to a Part in Performance, Song, or Pattern mode.

For your example, set Note Limit to F0 - B-1. Keys B-1 and below will sound, as will F0 and above. C0-E0 won’t.

Thank you for your advice - that helps in most cases but isn’t there a workaround to fix this muting as a default for all situations as long as it is wanted and independent from mode and status?

You’re welcome.

There’s no global setting on the XF to mute keys. A workaround using external devices could be accomplished…
1) Turn off Local Control.
2) Connect the XF’s MIDI-Out to the input of a MIDI Thru/Splitter (such as http://www.midisolutions.com/prodthr.htm). Both of the Thru’s outputs will duplicate the XF’s MIDI-Out.
3) Connect one of the Thru’s outputs to the device you want to control. That device will receive Note-on/off from any XF key.
4) Connect the other of the Thru’s outputs to the input of a MIDI Event Processor (such as http://www.midisolutions.com/prodevp.htm) which has been programmed to filter out the desired note range.
5) Connect the output of the Event Processor to the XF’s MIDI-In. All keys except those filtered by the Event Processor will sound.
