Data capacity of yoke nodes ?

hi
I have 2 controller keyboards and a Control Freak funnelled into a single node
e.g. keyboards -----> yoke 1
CF ------------> yoke 2
yoke 1 + 2 -------> yoke 3
This is so I can have midi tracks in Cubase SX controlled by a single Midi input (e.g. yoke 3).
Is there a danger of overloading yoke 3 ?
No problems so far.
cheers

There is no danger of overloading, but in your description is seems that and important piece is missing? What are you using to attach MIDI Yoke 1 + 2 to MIDI Yoke 3?
The other thing I wanted to mention is that I think you could use a single MIDI Yoke port to accomplish the same goal, as MIDI Yoke allows up to 4 separate applications to be connected to each MIDI Yoke port. So you'd have:
e.g. keyboards -----> yoke 1 (connected via MIDI-OX)
CF ------------> yoke 1 (connected via MIDI-OX)
MIDI tracks in Cubase SX will be controlled by a single Midi input (e.g. yoke 1).

thanks
I'm assigning yoke 1 +2 to yoke 3 in another instance of MidiOx. I have 5 launching at startup:
sw1000 midi in (keyboard 1) -----> yoke 1
mpu401 onboard midi in (keyboard 2) ----> yoke 1
multiface midi in (CF) -----> yoke 2
yoke 1 + 2 --------> yoke 3
yoke 4 -------> sw1000 midi out
Although the new sw1000 win2000/xp drivers are supposed to be multiclient they seem abit dodgy sometimes therefore I prefer to have yoke 4 as a multiclient output (xgpad software also needs to access sw1000 midi out).
Actually, couldn't I combine the 1st 2 two as one instance ?
This allows me to use yoke 1 or 2 separately as a midi input in Cubase if I need to.
Is this stupid ?
The thing is, because I shall probably never need all 8 yokes I thought that it would be more flexible to route this way.
It seems to work anyway !

Yes, I think you could.
I only mentioned this to make sure you knew all your options. I don't think any method of working is stupid, and I recommend working in the way that suits you best
