Troubleshooting
Not working? Here are some things to try:
- Make sure the MIDI Channel is set to Ch.1.
- If you are using the Omnisphere standalone host, make sure the MIDI output channel of the X-Station matches the MIDI channel of the Omnisphere part you want to control.
- Make sure your DAW is configured to correctly route the MIDI output of the X-Station to the MIDI channel assigned to the desired Part in Omnisphere.
