Yamaha QX3 sequencer and MIDI issues

Hello All,

I am having an issue recording MIDI into Pro Tools with my Yamaha QX3. I have tracks that use multiple channels of midi but when I record them in PT it only sends one channel at a time (even though all of them are active on the sequencer) so I have to manually record each channel and sync later. This seems asinine.

However, if recording one midi channel at a time is the only way I can do this, how do I trigger the sequencer through PT so that I don't have to painstakingly sync later?

Thanks for your help!
 
In the mix window up at the top you should see instrument options for each instrument track.
The option may be hidden. If so, use the menu at the bottom left of the mix window to show 'instruments'.

Anyway, in that area you'll have an option for midi input source.
Pick your hardware input and select omni rather than a specific channel.

I don't think you can specify several channels, but I know you can either pick one specific channel, or just receive on all.
