Keyboard midi channels and synth parts

I'm not really a tech wiz so I don 't know how best to describe this but here I go. I am constantly using different keyboards with the Electribe, sometimes a MiniKorg but usually a Roland Juno-D. When I am connected to the Electribe with the Juno-D why is it that I can only control synth part 1. When I press any of the other synths I still am controlling synth part 1. Probably an easy solution but I thought I'd ask.

Thanks in advance,
Joe

The reason you are only triggering the first part is because your keyboards are sending the midi notes on midi channel 1, there should be a setting somewhere on your keyboard that will allow you to change the output midi channel. This is what will make other parts respond to the keyboard.

Good luck.
