Setting the Jupiter 6’s base MIDI channel
With Europa, the Jupiter 6 has a settable base MIDI channel. Only later revisions of the Roland code
allowed this. Unlike the Roland code, Europa will remember the base MIDI channel after the board is
powered off.
When the Jupiter 6 is in either SPLIT
SPLITSPLIT
SPLIT mode, the lower patch is addressed by the base MIDI channel and
the upper patch is addressed by the base MIDI channel + 1. If the Jupiter 6’s base MIDI channel is set to
channel 16 and SPLIT
SPLITSPLIT
SPLIT mode is enabled, the upper patch is accessed on channel 1. The MIDI channels for
upper and lower patches are not individually selectable.
To set the base MIDI channel, press and hold TUNE
