USB-mode. Sending several notes to different channels?

[søren andreasen]

Hi,

I tried activating USB mode in order to make it more compact - and it works fine with one voice.

I have made a few m4l midi devices that send formatted midi messages to the serial port. 

It's 1 instance that sends to the serial port, and then other devices on the different midi tracks that send midi to the serial-sending device. Each device has been setup to different midi channels so they don't conflict there.

The weird thing is, that this doesn't seem to work. When I play more than one note at a time, the pitch gets totally screwed up somehow  - the timing as well. 

The SUPER weird thing is, if I put all my midi devices on ONE track and put midi transpose-devices (to get different tones) between the devices - it appears to work fine with polyphony. 

I wonder what I'm missing?

My send-to-serial device looks like this:
