The parameter selects function of green LED incicator of the interface. It can be temporarily changed by MIDI
CC Nr. 31 - see chapter 5.1.2.2.
The parameter value is 0 to 3. Four modes of indication are available thus:

P6-M interface uses all available MIDI communication methods – Channel Commands, Common System
Commands as well as System Exclusive messages

for experts.

The interface recognizes Note-Off, Note-On, Control Changes (CCs), Channel Aftertouch, Pitch Bend and

. All MIDI channel commands are received on the MIDI channel
defined by the MIDI CHANNEL global parameter (see chapter 4.1.1).

NOTE ON/OFF
The interface accepts Note-On and Note-Off commands in the range of max. 61 notes (5 octaves). If more than
6 MIDI Notes are active, the last received Notes have higher priority. Accepted range of the MIDI note numbers
are defined by the MIDI NOTES SHIFT interface patch parameter (see chapter 4.2.1).
The Note-On / Note-Off commands control the instrument's keyboard in parallel manner – both MIDI Notes and
instrument's own keyboard can be used simultaneously.

The interface recognizes standardized MIDI CCs (Nr. 1, 64 and 120 ~ 123) and some individually defined CCs (Nr.
16 ~ 31, 40 ~ 44 and 119) - see table 4 and description below.
