You can also set channels etc on the Linn itself as described below
The top row of nine buttons (bass thru CLAVE) are for selection of
Midi channels - the first 8 are numbers 1 to 8, the ninth button
(CLAVE) will add 8 to the channel if pressed immediately prior to
one of the buttons 1 to 8, allowing selection of channels 9 to 16. >>
On the bottom row, BASS selects Receive chan, SNARE selects Transmit
chan, HI-HAT selects [omni-on mode], HI-HAT> selects [omni-off mode],
CABASA selects [disable midi stop/start in & out], TAMB selects
[enable midi stop/start in & out], LO-TOM and LO-CONG are not used,
and COWBELL is the Enter key, to return you to the normal operating
state.
So the sequence of events is :- Red push button - (then optionally
omni on or off) - then recieve or transmit select, then a channel
number [1 thru 16] - then press COWBELL to exit.
As an example - to get transmit channel 5 and receive channel 10, but
leave it in omni-off mode.
1) Press the red button
2) Press SNARE [bottom row of buttons] (transmit select)
3) Press cabasa [top row of buttons (transmit ch 5 now set)
4) Press BASS [bottom row of buttons] (receive select)
5) Press CLAVE [top row ] (add 8 to the following channel)
6) Press snare [top row ] [receive ch 10 now set]
7) Press COWBELL [bottom row ] - Enter key
Note that when the red button has been pressed, the panel buttons
will not make sounds when pressed, until the Enter key has been
pressed (COWBELL [bottom row]).
