About the “Channel” sub-parameter:

This parameter sets the MIDI output channel of the selected control. The parameter can be set in the following ways:

•Global Your selected control will transmit on the global MIDI channel as specified on the Edit > Global page.

• 1-16	Your selected control will transmit on a MIDI channel between
	1 and 16.

•Zone 1-4Your selected control will transmit on the same MIDI channel used by the chosen keyboard zone (1 through 4). (see Edit Mode > Zones > Data to learn how to set these output channels).

•Group Your selected control will transmit on the same MIDI channel as set for its associated group of controls (e.g. encoder group). See Edit > Group to learn how to set a MIDI channel for a group of controls.

✓NOTE: Axiom Pro allows you to assign any control to any MIDI channel through the Edit Mode > Control menu. However, please note that certain MIDI devices reserve channel 10 for drums and percussion. Appendix E6 features a General MIDI drum map table to show you how drum sounds are commonly assigned to the keys of controllers. Please refer to your device’s documentation to learn more about this.
