Text size [-] [+]

Every physical controller on your Keystation Pro 88 can be assigned to its own individual channel, allowing you to control several instruments at the same time. It is also possible to tie a physical controller to a zone or to the Global Channel.
To assign the transmit channel for a control:
- Move a fader, a rotary controller, or press an assignable button to select for editing.
- Press CHANNEL ASSIGN. The LCD will display the CHAN symbol and the 3-digit display will show the current channel assignment of the selected controller. This will be preceded by a “c,” (for channel) or a “z” if the controller is assigned to a Global Zone channel.* The small two-digit display will show the currently selected controller number (each fader, rotary knob and button has its own controller number listed next to it) for assignment.
- Type the MIDI channel number (00-20) you want the controller to send on, using the numeric keypad or the +/- keys.
Note: If you select channels 17-20, the controller is assigned to the Global Zone channel for Zone 1, 2, 3, or 4 respectively.
Repeat this process to select and edit additional controllers. After programming your device, please refer to this article to store your changes to memory.
