Hi, sorry if this is a newbie question. How do I change a device’s global MIDI channel? I seen the screenshot below in the forum for a similar question but haven’t seen that Device cog anywhere unless things have moved on or I’m missing something (that looks to be in the preset editor)?

Can the MIDI channel be changed on the hardware itself or only via app?

More info on this is available at: [Preset Editor | Electra One Documentation](https://docs.electra.one/editor.html#devices)

Currently, the MIDI channel can be changed only in the application. Making it more flexible and changing it on the controller is on my development todo.
