14. SETTINGS MENU
14.4.3 CHANNELS
This menu handles the MIDI channel configuration.
TRACK 1–16 selects the dedicated MIDI channel that is used to receive or send (by turning the knobs)
parameter data to or from a specific audio track. If configured as OFF, parameter data are neither
received nor sent via MIDI.
The sequencer data is always sent on the MIDI channel specified by the CHAN
parameter on the SRC PARAMETER page.
FX CONTROL CH selects the dedicated MIDI channel that is associated with the parameters on the
DELAY, REVERB, CHORUS, and COMPRESSOR parameter pages together with the master overdrive,
both for input and output. If configured as OFF, parameter data are neither sent nor received via MIDI.
AUTO CHANNEL selects the MIDI channel that will give access to the currently active track. If an ex­
ternal MIDI keyboard connected to Digitakt II sends MIDI data on this channel, the keyboard will con­
trol the active track. This is useful when for example quickly changing between the active audio tracks
to play different presets. The Digitakt II also uses the AUTO channel to record to the MIDI tracks from
external MIDI controllers.
PROGRAM CHG IN CH selects the MIDI channel that will listen for incoming program change mes­
sages. An AUTO setting will use the AUTO channel. Enable Digitakt II to respond to program change
messages in the MIDI SYNC menu. For more information, please see “14.4.1 SYNC” on page 77.
PROGRAM CHG OUT CH selects the MIDI channel that will send program change messages when
changing patterns. An AUTO setting will use the AUTO channel. Enable Digitakt II to send program
change messages in the MIDI SYNC. For more information, please see “14.4.1 SYNC” on page 77.

When receiving or sending SysEx data, the MIDI ports or the USB port of the Digitakt II should be connect­
