As the S-1 can be connected to multiple AIRA Compacts over MIDI, such as the J-6, T-8 and E-4 amongst others, the default MIDI channel will differ to other AIRA Compacts.
On the S-1, its default MIDI channel is 3.
This is so that when the products are connected, they are not sending MIDI messages to the same channel. Thus allowing each unit to sync up without triggering functions or sounds unintentionally.
Here's how to change the MIDI channel to suit your needs!
- Hold SHIFT and then press PAD 15 (MENU) to access the menu.
- Use the TEMPO/VALUE dial to find CH (channel).
- Press PAD 2 (ENTER).
- Use the TEMPO/VALUE dial to select your desired channel.
- Press PAD 1 (EXIT) to leave the menu.
