This is a repeat thread. I retitled it as I think it better identifies the issue.
I just bought a Roland MC-80 Sequencer. Prior to that I was using a Roland MC-500mkII. The configuation was: 1. midi out from keyboard to midi in of sequencer: 2. midi out from sequencer to midi in of keyboard: 3. midi thru of keyboard to external sound module and drum rack. Everything worked fine. So, I set up the MC-80 the same way, but; now when I try to change the midi transmit channel on the keyboard to change the midi channel on the sound module, no matter what the number says its doesn't change. I then tried the midi thru from the sequencer to the sound module. Now it changes the midi channels on the sound module but nothing can be heard on playback. Conversely,when I plug back into the midi thru on the keyboard, I can hear playback. So its either I can't change midi channels sending to the sound module or I can't hear playback from the sound module. I've tried settings changes and the like with no success. Is there a better way to configure that will fix this problem?
