same-numbered patch stored in the X Board.

MIDI Controller Knob Settings

Initial Knob Settings - Turning the knob on the screen won't affect your soft-
synth. Instead, set the value using the X Board knob, then press Refresh to update
the screen.
The CC Channel number field allows you to set the MIDI continuous controller
number (0-127) for each knob. The X Board CC numbers must match the CC
numbers on your synthesizer in order to operate.
• Note: Don't confuse MIDI channels with MIDI CC channels. See "MIDI
Channels & Continuous Controllers" on page 51 for more information.
The MIDI Channel field allows you to set the MIDI channel for each knob). This
field is "greyed out" (and unavailable) unless the "MIDI Channel Number Per
Control" option is selected (see below). Normally, all the controller knobs use the
Basic MIDI channel. The "MIDI Channel Number Per Control" option allows you
to select a different MIDI channel for each knob, the wheels, and the footpedal.
This feature is only accessible from the X Board Control software.

Basic MIDI Channel:

The keyboard always transmits on the basic MIDI channel. The controller knobs,
wheels and footpedal/footswitch also transmit on the Basic MIDI channel, except
when the "MIDI Channel Number Per Control" option is selected. See next option.
