Pop-Up Messages
Some actions cause the display to show pop-up messages. After a short time the display
returns to show the current Multi.
MIDI In/Out Activity Indicators
MIDI In/Out activity indicators are displayed at the top of the screen (shown as 2 MIDI
port symbols with “I” for “in” and “O” for “out”). These indicators briefly light up when
MIDI has been recently sent to or received by the Forte’s MIDI/USB ports. If the symbol is
green, this indicates there has been MIDI activity on that port in the last few seconds. If the
symbol is red, this indicates there has been communication with the external software editor
on that port in the last few seconds. If the symbol is grey, this indicates there has been no
MIDI activity on that port in the last few seconds.
Alpha Wheel & Previous (–) and Next (+) Value Buttons
Use the Alpha Wheel or the Value buttons (to the right of the display below the Alpha
Wheel) to change the current Multi. Turning the Alpha Wheel counter-clockwise or pressing
the Previous button will select the previous Multi, and turning the Alpha Wheel clockwise
or pressing the Next button will select the next Multi. When the highest or lowest Multi is
reached, the list will wrap back to the first or last Multi, respectively.
Value Jump Buttons
In Multi Mode, the Value Jump double button press increments the Multi IDs by 10 with
each press. If the currently selected Multi is ID 4, using the Value Jump double button press
will select Multi ID 14. If pressed again, Multi ID 24 will be selected, and so on. When the
end of the Multi list is reached, a Multi at the beginning of the list will be selected.
The Cursor Buttons
Use the Cursor buttons (to the right of the display) to change the current Multi. The Right
and Down arrowed buttons will increment the current Multi, and the Left and Up arrowed
buttons will decrement the current Multi.
