How do I connect a Beat Step Pro to multiple pieces of hardware?

<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>The goal is to use my beatstep pro in a live setting with my Sub Phatty and a drum machine, which I have yet to buy. Before I buy the drum machine, I want to make sure that I can connect the Beat Step Pro to both the Sub Phatty and Drum machine such that they can play different patterns, such as a drum beat through the drum machine, and a different synth pattern on top. </p> <p>My worry is that midi out will send all midi information from both the drum sequence and the synth sequence to whichever piece of hardware I route the midi out to, so I wont be able to separate the patterns in the sequences. </p> <p>Should I simply ignore midi out and use all of the other outputs on the back? Will that keep the sequences separate? </p> <p>The drum machine I'm looking at is the TR 08, but I noticed that one doesn't have 8 inputs for the gates. Could anyone recommend a piece of hardware that would allow me to route the drum gates from the beat step pro to the TR 08, and still keep a separate sequence going on my Sub Phatty? </p> <p>Thanks in advance!</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/TheChumOfChance"> /u/TheChumOfChance </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/ehayog/how_do_i_connect_a_beat_step_pro_to_multiple/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/ehayog/how_do_i_connect_a_beat_step_pro_to_multiple/">[comments]</a></span>
