The following example configures a button to increment the release time of the currently active MIDI instrument sound
preset every time the button is pressed (you may have to push the button several times while playing notes to hear a
difference).
1.
Press the Edit button.
2.
Press the Select button or Control Select (Ctrl Sel) key.
3.
Select the Control as described earlier in this guide (button or pedal).
4.
Press the Control Assign (Control Asgn) key.
5.
Enter 154 using the number keys. This sets the button or the pedal to increment the MIDI CC value.
6.
Press the Data 1 key.
7.
Enter 72 using the number keys. This specifies the MIDI CC for which values will be incremented.
8.
Press the Data 2 key.
9.
Enter 0 using the number keys. This specifies the minimum value.
10.
Press the Data 3 key.
11.
Enter 127 using the number keys. This specifies the maximum value.
12.
Press the Enter key.
To configure a button to decrement (decrease) a MIDI CC value, assign the button to number 153. The minimum and
maximum value (range) for each button is set using the Data 2 and Data 3 parameters respectively.
NOTE:
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 button to decrement the
same parameter will cause the first button to send values such as 1, 2, 3, etc., each time the button is pressed.
Pressing the second button will send values such as 127, 126, 125 (as opposed to starting to decrement where the
first button left off; for example, 2, 1, 0).
Programming a Button or Sustain Pedal to Increment/Decrement a Program Change
It is possible to configure a button or the sustain pedal 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 the button 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):
The following example configures a button to increment through the sound presets on a connected software or
hardware synthesizer:
1.
Press the Edit button.
2.
Press the Select button or Control Select (Ctrl Sel) key.
3.
Select the Control as described earlier in this guide.
4.
Press the Control Assign (Ctrl Asgn) key.
5.
Enter 156 using the number keys. This configures the button or sustain pedal to increment the Program number.
6.
Press the Data 2 key.
7.
Enter 0 using the number keys. This specifies the lowest Program number.
8.
Press the Data 3 key.
9.
Enter 127 using the number keys. This specifies the highest Program number.
10.
Press the Enter key.
To configure a button or the sustain pedal to decrement a Program Change between a maximum and minimum value,
assign the button to number 155. The minimum and maximum values are set using the Data 2 and Data 3
parameters respectively.
NOTE:
Each button or the sustain pedal 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 through sound presets and
another button to decrement through sound presets will cause the first button to recall programs 1, 2, 3, etc., each
time the button is pressed. Pressing the second button will recall programs such as 127, 126, 125 (as opposed to
starting to decrement where the first button left off for example, 2, 1, 0).
