Bank=Song – This setting affects what MIDI bank and Program Change messages do in Song and Setlist mode. Please
refer to the External MIDI Control section for more details.
MIDI Bidir – Turns bidirectional MIDI support on or off. Certain devices support bidirectional communication between
the device and MIDI controller. This allows you to have two way communication with a single 5 pin MIDI cable. Don’t
turn this parameter on unless you know your device does support bidirectional MIDI. Bidirectional MIDI only works with
the first device in your MIDI chain.
Remote – Turning this on enables remote mode. This allows more than one Mastermind PBC to be connected together
and have them all synchronized together. Refer to the Remote and Expander Mode section for more information.
Expander – Turning this on enables Expander Mode. This allows you to link two PBCs together and use them as one 20
loop switcher. Refer to the Remote and Expander Mode section for more information. This parameter is only visible if
the
Remote parameter is turned on.
MIDI Merge – When set to “On”, all MIDI messages that are received through the Remote In or USB -> PC ports are
retransmitted through the MIDI Out port.
MIDI Clock – Determines whether the Mastermind PBC acts as a MIDI clock “Master” or “Slave”. Setting this parameter
to “None” (the default) disables MIDI clock support. See the Tap Tempo and MIDI Clock section for more details.
The remaining options allow you to set the Continuous Controller (CC) numbers that control individual functions like
loops, function switches, buffers and outputs. Please refer to the External MIDI Control section for more details.

Expression Pedal Menu
The Expression Pedal menu allows you to edit the behavior of the expression pedal. This menu can be accessed from
the Main Menu, which is where you set the global expression pedal settings. You can also enter this menu from Edit
Presets, which allows you to override the global settings for a preset.
Override – This parameter is only visible when editing the expression pedal settings for a particular preset (not from
the Main Menu). When editing a preset, turn this parameter On to override the global settings for the expression pedal.
The remainder of the settings below will be displayed so you can edit the expression pedal settings for the current
preset.
