At my last show I decided to experiment a bit and use
a Rock Band 3
keytar via a MidAir wireless midi adapter. The RB3 controller is
midi-compliant but completely undocumented, and while I have figured out
how to do most useful things on it such as octaves, pitch bend, and
modulation, I cannot figure out how to use any channel except channel 1
(and splitting to channel 10 on the lower half of the keyboard by
pressing one of the buttons -- I forget which). So I ended up playing
the B3 with my keytar, but had to sit back down at my controller to play
anything else, which is a bummer.
It sounds like you've figured out most of it anyway, but CDM did a
write-up on the RB3 keytar that covers its MIDI functionality:

Unfortunately it looks like it's stuck on channel 1 with the exception
of that drum split mode you mentioned.
How has the keytar been for you otherwise? I have one myself, but I
haven't done anything serious with it yet.
Thanks
