must be able to receive these messages. A full list of these control messages is given in Appendix A. 
For example, you may want to set the Knob1 to control the channel volume. This is done by assigning controller 7 to the Knob1 (first on the 
left). Examples of other popular effects are listed in the table below. (Please consult Appendix A for the full list.)

There are many different types of virtual instruments available and most of these respond to MIDI controller messages, allowing you to 
control a variety of parameters from your PANDAMINI II keyboard. Please review the manual that came with your software or external gear 
to see what these controller numbers are.   

 

5.2 Programming the Controls on Your PANDAMINI II 

When programming a physical controller on your PANDAMINI II, the controller that was last used will be the first one selected for     
programming. To select a different physical controller for programming, the method is: Press the MENU button repeatedly until the OLED 
dispays “Control assign CC NUMB/Pad note”, then move the physical controller you wish to program. When control assignment mode works, 
the OLED displays the following: 

 

 

5.3 Control assignment   

In control assignment mode the 8 assignable knobs/sliders and 8 assignable pads can be programmed to any MIDI controller messages 
that are used for controlling the MIDI-adjustable parameters in your software or on your external MIDI gear. 
To select a different physical controller for programming, the method is: Press the MENU button repeatedly until the OLED dispays “Control 
assign CC NUMB/Pad note”, then move the physical controller you wish to program. Input the desired controller value with value dial and 
confirm the value with “Enter” button. Holding the “Enter” button for 2 seconds to exit the edit mode.The OLED displays the following for 
control assignment: 

 

 

5.4 Assignable Knobs 

There’re 4 knobs that can be assigned as controller No. independently. Press the MENU button repeatedly until the OLED dispays “CC 
NUMB/Pad note”, then rotate the knobs you wish to program. Input the desired controller value with value dial and confirm the value with 
“Enter” button. For example, you may want to set the Knob1 to control the channel volume. This is done by assigning controller 7 to the 
Knob1 (first on the left). The operation steps is shown as below and the OLED displays the following: 
(1) Press the MENU button repeatedly until the OLED dispays “Control assign CC NUMB/Pad note”. 
(2) Rotate R1 knob (first on the left).   
(3) Rotate the value dial until the OLED displays “007”. The numbers are the controllers. 
(4) Press the “Enter” button to confirm and the OLED will display “Done”. Holding the “Enter” button for 2 seconds to exit the edit mode and 
return to parameter display mode.Then if you rotate the knobs, move the sliders or trigger the pads the OLED will display the current 
parameters of these controllers.
