Programming a Button to Increment/Decrement a MIDI CC value 

 
It is possible to configure a button to increase or decrease a value each time it is pressed. This is useful if you want to step through values 
one by one each time a button is pressed. 
 
To configure a button to increment a MIDI CC between a minimum and maximum value, assign it to number 154. The maximum and 
minimum values are set using the Data 2 and Data 3 parameters respectively. This requires four values to be specified (values given are 
examples): 
 

Key 

Parameter 

Value 

Control Assign

Increment MIDI CC

154

Data 1 (example)

MIDI CC number

72 (Release Time)

Data 2 (example)

Low Limit

0

Data 3 (example)

High Limit

127

 
The following example configures a button to increment the release time of a sound patch on a MIDI instrument, every time it is pressed. 
You may have to push the button several times while playing notes to hear the difference. 
 

To configure a button to increment/decrement a MIDI CC value: 

1.

 

Select a button as described earlier. 

2.

 

Press the Edit button. 

3.

 

Press the Control Assign key. The LCD screen will read "ASIGN" and display the currently selected control (for example "F10"), and 
the current MIDI CC assignment (for example "146"). 

4.

 

Enter 154 using the number keys. This sets the button to increment the MIDI CC value. 

5.

 

Press the Enter key. 

6.

 

Press the Edit button. 

7.

 

Press the Data 1 key. The LCD screen will display the currently assigned function (for example "NOTE"), the selected control (for 
example "F10"), and the current value. 

8.

 

Enter "72" using the number keys. This specifies the MIDI CC for the parameter or function that will be affected. 

9.

 

Press the Enter key. 

10.

 

Press the Edit button. 

11.

 

Press the Data 2 key. The LCD screen will read "MIN" and display the currently selected control (for example "F10"), and the 
current value (for example "64"). 

12.

 

Enter 0 using the number keys. This specifies the minimum value. 

13.

 

Press the Enter key. 

14.

 

Press the Edit button. 

15.

 

Press the Data 3 key. 

16.

 

Enter 127 using the number keys. This specifies the maximum value. 

17.

 

Press the Enter key. 

 
To configure a button to decrement (decrease) a MIDI CC value, assign it to number 153. The minimum and maximum value (range) for 
each button is set using the Data 2 and Data 3 parameters respectively. 
 
Each button will only increment or decrement its own parameter value, and this value is independent of any other button. In other words, 
assigning one button to increment a parameter and another to decrement the same parameter will cause the first button to send values 
such as 1, 2, 3, etc. Pressing the second button will send values such as 127, 126, 125, etc, and will not decrement from where the first 
button left off (for example 2, 1, 0).  
 

Programming a Button to Increment/Decrement a Program Change 

 
It is possible to configure a button to send an Increment (increase) or Decrement (decrease) Program Change message each time it is 
pressed. 
 
To configure a button to increment a Program Change between a minimum and maximum value, assign it to number 156. The minimum 
and maximum values are set using the Data 2 and Data 3 parameters respectively. This requires three values to be specified (values given 
are examples):  
 

Key 

Parameter 

Value 

Control Assign

Program Increment

156

Data 2 (example)

Program Number (minimum)

0

Data 3 (example)

Program Number (maximum)

127

 

To configure a button to increment/decrement a Program Change: 

1.

 

Select a button as described earlier. 

2.

 

Press the Edit button. 

3.

 

Press the Control Assign key. The LCD screen will read "ASIGN" and display the currently selected control (for example "F10"), and 
the current MIDI CC assignment (for example "154"). 

4.

 

Enter 156 using the number keys. This configures the button to increment the Program number 

5.

 

Press the Enter key. 

6.

 

Press the Edit button. 

7.

 

Press the Data 2 key. The LCD screen will read "MIN" and display the currently selected control (for example "F10"), and the 
current value (for example "64"). 

8.

 

Enter 0 using the number keys. This specifies the lowest Program number. 

9.

 

Press the Enter key. 

10.

 

Press the Edit button. 

11.

 

Press the Data 3 key. The LCD screen will read "MAX" and display the currently selected control (for example "F10"), and the 
current value (for example "87").
