Behringer PolyD - change MIDI channel (spoiler - you need a PC!)

This is a follow-up to my last video where I showed how to set Multi Trigger without the SynthTribe app ( • Behringer PolyD - Mult... ). Sadly, this doesn't seem to be the case for setting the MIDI channel, it seems you can only do this via the app or via Sys Ex. Cheat-sheet available here: / cheat-sheet-midi-99909946

Interesting video. Thanks. I have had a Poly D for just over a year. I am a bass player using it with Studio Logic pedals in my cover band. Just for some fill-in sounds. Anyways, I plugged it into a PC for the first time the other day. The message I got on the PC was the USB device failed. I tried different cables, different USB slots on the PC, re-booting etc. As far as I know the PC software is up to date based on updating at shutdown. Google answers I got for a fix ranged from the things I have done to replacing the USB port on the synth. Do you have any suggestions or thoughts? I really hope I don't have to replace the USB port on the Poly. I am not sure who would even do that? A computer store or a music store? Thanks in advance for any help.

well, short answer is I don't know... But maybe trying another PC is easier than messing with the synth, maybe try a friends/family PC, since SynthTribe won't take much resource. There are companies that work on synths, but this sounds like it could be pricey work unfortunately... If you're happy with keeping it as an old-school synth, then don't worry about the USB (since it has MIDI din also, so you can sequence this via MIDI or using the onboard sequencers, but, yea, bummer!! sorry to hear this...
