Edit mode 

 
The edit mode allows the programming of the controls (pots, encoder and buttons). Start and leave edit 
mode by holding down shift key and press the black edit key. The activated edit mode is indicated by 
blinking yellow Edit-LED. All data will be stored in the currently selected setup automatically by leaving 
the edit mode. 
 
To edit any control you have to choose the control number first. There are two ways to do so: 
1.

 

press button 1 (the left green button) and then select the control by the encoder or 

2.

 

holding down the black edit button while you move the wanted control 

Then you can set different properties by selecting them with button 2 to 8 (see below) and changing with 
the encoder. 
 
To copy properties separately to all controls of same type (pots or buttons), hold down the button 2, 3, 4, 5, 
7 or 8 while running bar lines shown. This makes editing much faster if you want to have same functions 
on all controls. 
 
To assign number, channel and type by incoming midi commands (learn mode) please press the encoder. A 
small point on the right display shows active learn-mode. On this way you can learn any valid command 
(control change, program change, aftertouch, pitch bend or note) to the currently selected control (see with 
button 1). Press the encoder again to leave the learn mode. 
 
Hold down the red shift key and press any of the lower 8 buttons or turn/push the encoder to send Midi 
commands in edit mode. However pots always send Midi commands in edit mode.
