EDIT MODE
ASSIGNING CONTROLS ON THE SL COMPACT
In Edit Mode, you can access the settings for each individual assignable control on the SL Compact (all buttons, encoders,
wheels, transport buttons and pedals). These settings define what MIDI message is sent when the control is operated.
To access the settings for a particular control, press and hold the EDIT button and then operate the control you want to
edit. Note that for buttons and encoders you may need to select a different group using the GROUP SELECT SWITCHES and then
operate the desired control before releasing the EDIT button. The encoders and buttons above and below each option on
the display can then be used to alter the settings for the control. Use the PAGE UP/DOWN buttons to scroll through the
available pages of settings for the control (there will be between 1 and 3 pages of settings, depending on the type of control).
If a control is not assigned to send a MIDI message then when you select it in Edit Mode the display will look like this:
The
Control
setting is the first one you will set as it defines the type of MIDI message the control sends. If you are not
familiar with any of the different types of MIDI messages listed in this section (with the exception of ‘Template’ they are all
defined in the MIDI Specification) then we suggest doing some background reading on MIDI at this point so that you can
better understand the options available in Edit Mode.
The available options for the
Control
setting depend on the physical control type, i.e. whether it is an encoder, button, pedal
etc. For example, it is only possible to assign the pitch wheel to send pitch bend messages, consequently you cannot set
Control
to PITCHBND for any other assignable controls on the SL Compact. The following table shows which MIDI
messages can be assigned to each of the different types of physical controls on the SL Compact:
Once you have chosen the type of MIDI message you want a control to send, you can adjust the rest of the settings for that
control. The available settings will depend on what
Control
is set to. The following is a guide to each of settings available
for the different
Control
options. Follow through the section for Control Change (CC) first of all as these are the most
commonly used MIDI messages for parameter control and also many of the settings for CC apply to the other
Control
options too:
