What I've often done is to use an always-on instr 1 (with massign 0, 1), to 
receive all the MIDI data (midiin).

Then with trigger processing the data, followed by either event or 
schedkwhen (more reliable and flexible than schedule), "real" notes are sent 
to the other instruments.

With care the incoming data can also be made to control note offs - as long 
as the "real" notes are given indefinate duration (p3 = -1). Simultaneous or 
overlapping pitches on the same instrument can be handled by decimal 
notation (i.e., i1.1). Of course, with either event or schedkwhen, the 
generated i statements may also be given fixed or random durations.

I guess what I'm basically wondering is if you can hit a note on a
keyboard controlling one instrument and have that trigger another
instrument without having to hold the note down.
