iOS Midi Channel change

Help & Support
1

Hi team,
I’m playing around with Chordjam and external gear. My external hardware is set up to receive Midi data on channel 2 but does not receive any notes from chordjam. I can confirm that the setting is working well with an external keyboard and also other iOS Apps e.g. Fugue Machine.

I tried changing the midi channel inside chordjam from omni to channel 2 using the settings from the upper right corner but still my external gear is not receiving any data.
I’m using a Conductive Labs - MRCC for midi routing which also allows me to see on which channel data is sent and I can confirm that regardless of the setting the midi data from chordjam is always sent on channel 1.
I checked in the iOS standalone app and AUM.

My version is 1.5.4

Expectation:
When changing the midi channel from omni to a specific channel e.g. channel 2, the midi data must only be sent on this channel.

Hi tobr,
May I please have a screenshot of your MIDI settings in Chordjam?

Hi and thanks for the response.

I was able to solve my issue. There is nothing wrong with Chordjam.
I did not realise the “Voice distribution” section on the Midi settings which allows me to set the individual voices to different Midi channels. I was confused by a video I watched, which had the Midi Channel setting per device and wasn’t able to find something similar in the latest app version.

Thanks for creating such great software and taking care of your customers by offering a forum for support!
