Table 4.2: Assignment of the push encoders in EDIT mode (SWITCH types)

Table explanation:

All  settings  in  the  EDIT  mode  are  made  by  turning  the  push

encoders. Pressing the push encoder displays its current value.

In addition, the setting options depend on whether the selected

control element is a SWITCH type or CONTINUOUS type.
In the EDIT mode, 

Push Encoder 1 

selects (by turning) the type

of command assigned to a control element.
With 

Push Encoder 2, 

select a MIDI channel through which that

control element’s data is sent.

Push Encoders 3 - 5 

set parameters and values for the selected

MIDI type. They vary depending on the MIDI function. More details

about this subject can be found later in this chapter.

Push Encoder 6 

(Controller Mode) selects how the previously

selected control element behaves, depending on whether it is a

SWITCH or a CONTINUOUS type.

CONTINUOUS-type elements:

CONTINUOUS-type element controls are divided into “Absolute,”

“Absolute (14 bit),” “Relative 1” (2nd complement), “Relative 2”

(binary offset), “Relative 3” (MSB, most significant bit), “Relative

1 (14 bit),” “Relative 2 (14 bit),” “Relative 3 (14 bit)” and “Increment/

Decrement.”

  Absolute 

means  absolute  data  values  although

jumps  may  occur  when  changing  values.  With 

Relative

,  the

current  parameter  value  is  continued  independently  from  the

position of the control. 

Absolute (14-Bit) 

or one of the

 Relative

(14-Bit)

 modes

 

are standard modes for value changes at NRPNs

with high resolution. This is necessary with some software mixers

if more than 128 steps are needed. 

Increment/Decrement

 serves

as a step-by-step increase or decrease of values by using the

Data  Increment/Decrement  commands  (see  list  5.1  in  the

appendix).

+

The  classic  controler  mode  for  most  applications  is

“absolute”. All other modes have to be supported by

the MIDI software or the device to be controlled.

Using 

Push Encoder 7

, you can adjust how control elements

display information. Depending on whether you are dealing with

an encoder, push encoder, fader or foot pedal, there are different

options available:
