A Note on MIDI Common Channel (CC)
The MIDI Common Channel (CC) is a grouping channel that pads,
knobs, and sliders can be assigned to. The Common Channel
allows you to group pads, knobs and sliders to transmit on the MIDI
Port and Channel that is set for the MIDI Common Channel in
GLOBAL MODE.
For example:
Your pads, knobs and sliders are assigned to the MIDI Common
Channel. In GLOBAL MODE, you have assigned this channel to
transmit on MIDI Channel #4 – so all the pads, knobs and sliders
assigned to the MIDI Common Channel will transmit information
on MIDI Channel #4. You might, at some point, want to switch all
your pads, knobs and sliders to transmit on MIDI Channel #7.
Instead of having to change the MIDI Channel for each pad, knob
or slider, you could simply change the Common Channel to #7 in
GLOBAL MODE. This will cause any pad, knob or slider that is
assigned to the Common Channel (CC) to transmit on MIDI
Channel #7.
For more information on setting MIDI Common Channel port
and number, see 'Global Mode' on page 21.
