If you choose a message type that is more than one byte long the
1st Data Byte
( and possibly the
2nd
Data Byte
) editor appears. You can set the data byte’s value by typing or using the up/down arrows. The
editor accepts values from 0 through 127.
Instead of setting an absolute value for a data byte, you can check the
Follows Control’s Value
box. In
this case, the value of that data byte is determined by the state of the MCS5 hardware control this
message is assigned to. In other words, if you assigned a Custom MIDI Message to the
Jog Wheel
and
the 2nd data byte was set to
Follows Control’s Value
, a number representing the position of the
Jog
Wheel
would be inserted as the 2nd data byte of the custom message. For MCS5 buttons, a value of 127
will be inserted for button presses, and 0 for button releases.
Following are some samples of the
MIDI Tab’s
appearance for various message types.
For convenience, choosing
Set all Controls to Native MIDI
in the
Actions
menu will assign
Emulation
Actions
to all of the MCS5 controls on all banks in the current keyset.
