The nanoPAD2’s global parameters

Touch Scale

If the Touch Scale mode is “on,” moving your finger in the X-axis direction of the X-Y

pad will transmit note messages, and moving it in the Y-axis direction will transmit

control change messages.

CC

Note message

X-Y pad

MIDI Channel [1...16/Global]

This specifies the MIDI channel of the MIDI messages that are transmitted in the

Touch Scale mode.

If you choose “Global,” messages will be transmitted on the 

Global MIDI channel

(p.8).

Note On Velocity [1…127]

This specifies the Velocity of the Note messages that are transmitted in the Touch

Scale mode.

Y-axis CC Enable [Disable/Enable]

This enables/disables the Y-axis of the X-Y pad.

Y-axis Control Change Number [0…127]

This specifies the control change number of the transmitted control change messages.

Y-axis Polarity [Normal/Reverse]

This specifies the polarity of the Y-axis values of the X-Y pad.

Normal

Operation will be normal. The lower edge produces low values,

and the upper edge produces high values.

Reverse

High and low values will be inverted. The lower edge produces

high values, and the upper edge produces low values.

Gate Speed [1/48...1/2]

This specifies the resolution (the interval between notes) relative to the tempo speci-

fied for the Gate Arpeggiator when Touch Scale is “on.”

Notes will be played at the following resolution relative to the specified tempo.
