Setting Master Dim and Playing a Preset (Channel Voice
Control)
Your selections for the controller’s channel number or control number are used for master dim and
preset playing as summarized below:
• Master dim: This is set using the MIDI control change function; it requires both a channel
number and a control number. The master dim level is an absolute value, not a delta (change)
value. The value of 99 corresponds to full brightness; the value of 0 corresponds to off or full
dark. More about master dim as it relates to master/slave modes of the controller is found in
the section titled “Master/Slave Modes” on page 7.
• Playing a preset: A preset can be played back using the MIDI program change function.
Program change requires you to set only a channel number (along with a preset number).
Presets are described in Chapter 4 of the Universal controller manual.
