SONGS: 

There  are  254  song  locations  in  the  LF+.  Each  Song  can  have  a  specific  set  of  24  presets,  which  are  put  in 

whatever order you define for that particular song. By selecting a song, you are telling the LF+ to re-arrange the presets 

to match the order defined in the song. Songs are simply a folder of presets put into a particular order. 

 

SET-LISTS

:  Set-Lists  are  similar  to  songs.  But  unlike  songs  which  sort  presets  into  a  particular  order,  Set-Lists  do  a 

sorting of songs in a particular order that you define per preset. So when using the LF+ in Set-List mode, the first thing 

you will do is load the Set-List. The system will know that you ordered the Songs into a particular order. Now as you 

press SONG UP or SONG DOWN buttons, you will scroll through the songs in the order that you set for the set-list. When 

you select a song, the system will then have access to the presets (in the order) that you loaded into the Song definition. 

 

PAGES

:  There  are  50  pages  that  you  program  and  have  access  to  at  any  time.  What  is  a  page?  Well  imagine  your 

controller being a blank slate of buttons. Those buttons need to be assigned things to do.  Pages are used to define a set 

of  behaviors,  and  a  set  of  things  that  each  button  can  do.  In  fact,  on  each  page,  a  button  can  do  up  to  two  different 
things.  When  your  needs  become  very  complex,  using  pages  and  flipping  between  pages  allows  you  to  redesign  the 

“layout” in real-time of your controller. Pages can even be programmatically changed at a song, preset, or IA-Slot level. 

 

What can you assign to a button? Good question. There are four types of items, (1) a Preset holder, (2) an IA-Slot, (3) a 
special  command  (like  BANK  UP,  etc…),  and  switch  page  commands.  With  the  ability  to  utilize  two  commands  per 

button,  you  can  image  putting  a  BANK  UP  as  function  #1,  and  BANK  DOWN  as  function  #2  on  the  same  button- 

depending on the behavior you set for that particular button, its possible to tap the button for Bank UP, and double tap 

the button for bank down. You used one button to do two powerful things!
