Learning Continuous Controllers
The MPX 500 recognizes Pitch Bend, AfterTouch and MIDI Continuous Controllers 1-31 and 33-119.
To Learn a Continuous Controller:
1. Simultaneously press Store and Tap/Cancel to enter Learn Mode. (The LEDs of both these
buttons will light to indicate Learn Mode is active.)
Learn
Store Tap/Cancel
2. Move one of the MPX 500 front panel controls (Edit Knob 1-4 with any of the four edit pages
displayed, Bypass or Tap) to assign it to the controller. (Make sure that the Edit knob you want
assigned is displayed before you move its corresponding Edit knob. The selected knob's name
will appear highlighted and its current controller number and range will be displayed.)
3. Move the MIDI controller through its full range. To use only a fraction of the controller’s range, limit
your movement to the desired range. An indicator will appear on the display to indicate incoming
MIDI activity.
You can also dial up the controller you want with the Edit knob. In this case, the controller is
automatically set to full range (0-127).
4. Press Store to commit to the assignment.
5. To assign another parameter or front panel control to a MIDI controller, repeat steps 2 - 5.
6. Simultaneously press Store and Tap/Cancel to exit.

NOTE: When a MIDI controller is assigned to
Bypass or Tap, moving it through the mid-point
of its Learned range will execute a “press” of
the front panel button.
