2. Utility menu items and procedures

This section explains the content of each utility menu item, and how to use it.

HDD free:

This shows the remaining space on the hard disk.

Main out capture:

This enables/disables the Main Out Capture function. We recommend that you leave this
set to “Disable” unless you are currently using the Main Out Capture function. Leaving it
set to “Enable” while this function is not being used will slow down the bank list display.

MIDI setting:

Here you can adjust the kaptivator’s MIDI settings, such as transmitting or receiving MIDI
clock, MIDI channel, and control change settings. The kaptivator cannot send and receive
MIDI clock information at the same time.

Setting the control change number

The kaptivator can receive or send MIDI clock for synchronizing with other devices, and can
be set to any MIDI channel. Additionally, each of the kaptivator’s controllers can be assigned
