Vortex Sound Research

I'm considering buying a KeyStep Pro soon but there's a couple of things I'm wondering about it that I haven't been able to confirm. If I've got 4 sequences running, and I want to play a 5th synth on top of that, is that possible? Like does the control mode output normal midi from the keys?

My other question is there an easy and quick way to change the midi channel of a track like on the BeatStep Pro? I always appreciate when keyboards and sequencers make changing channel only a couple button presses away instead of having it only in a menu.
