When an MIDI input device is configured in active mode, the '''active chain''' (the highlighted/selected chain) receives all MIDI input from it and all MIDI events are translated to the active chain's MIDI channel. It's the default mode for all input devices. When using active mode you don't need to worry about the MIDI channel your keyboard/controller is using. You change which instruments are played by changing the active chain in your zynthian (see below).

* Active MIDI channel '''Disabled''' => Only the active chain receives data from the MIDI input in active mode. It's the default.
* Active MIDI channel '''Enabled''' => All chains with the same MIDI channel as the active chain receive MIDI input from the devices in active mode. This is very useful for layering sounds without any extra routing. You simply create several synth chains with the same MIDI channel and they will play in unison. You can also create keyboard splits by adjusting note range and transpose for each chain from the chain options menu.
