1. Receive Data
Messages for the CV and GATE jacks are received if the “MIDI Ch: CV/GATE”
parameter matches the MIDI receive channel parameter. Messages for the AUX
jack are received if the “MIDI Ch: AUX” parameter matches the MIDI receive
channel number. Messages for the BEND jack are received if the “MIDI Ch: Bend”
parameter matches the MIDI receive channel number.
If the “MIDI Ch: *” parameter is set to “OMNI, all MIDI channel numbers are
received regardless of the MIDI receive channel number.
