Unlike the Control Assign functions, Global functions can be accessed regardless of what preset has been selected. And just to recap:
Pressing [Shift]+[Patch>] (Setup) buttons will activate the Setup menu and the display will show {S.E.t.} with the 3 dots blinking for as long
as the menu is active. The following assumes the Setup menu is active.
Global MIDI Channel (C2)
The Impact LX+ keyboard always transmit on the Global MIDI Channel but this setting also affect any control or pad that is not assigned
to a specific MIDI channel (i.e. 1-16). Earlier we learned how the Octave and Transpose buttons can be set up to change the Global MIDI
Channel but here is another option:
• Press the C2 key on your keyboard to select Global MIDI Channel. The display show the current value {001-016}
• Change the value in decrements/increments using the keys with the -/+ symbols screened above (C3/C#3). The value assignment is
instant so if you exit the Setup menu after making changes, those changes remain active
• You can also enter a specific value (1-16) using the white number keys spanning G3 –B4. Press Enter (C5) to accept the change
