apparently no! weird...
I tested beatstep in windows 7 , in FL studio,
assigned some pads and knobs to control some stuff in a pads plugin and a synth plug in.
Then I changed the channel on beatstep and pressed the same pads / turned the same knobs and the controls continued working as before...

if you have another test to suggest Jeremy, i'll run it.

thanks

Hello Athanasios,

Ah, someone with an Arturia Beatstep, interesting device, GAS ;) Setting
the channel should be reflected in QMidiRoute. Did you test it on a
different OS by any chance? Does it work there?
