MIDI Channel
What is the current channel?
The current channel is the MIDI transmit select for the keyboard and bender lever.
* Each controller can have its own separate transmit channel. However if “OMNI” is
ON, messages will be transmitted on the current channel specified for OMNI.
Here’s another way to change the current channel.
1.
Hold down the [SHIFT] button and use the following buttons to enter a
numerical value.
