PLEASE REMEMBER THAT ALL TEMPLATE EDITING MUST BE SAVED BEFORE YOU CHANGE TEMPLATE OR  
TURN OFF YOUR ZeRO SL MkII OTHERWISE ANY CHANGES MAYBE LOST. 

When you have finished editing you should remember to press the 

write

 button. The LCD displays the option to rename 

the template and choose the template position. Then press 

write

 again to finish saving.

MIDI message Assignment Table

The following table shows which MIDI messages can be assigned to the various physical controls on the SL.

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: 

ContRoL CHAnGE (CC) 

DispType (Display Type):

 This setting allows you to select how the value for the control is displayed on the SL.  

For encoders it can also be used to change the mode of operation. The options are:

0-127:

 Control value displayed with range 0 to 127. This is best suited to a parameter with a single direction increase/

decrease e.g. track volume.

-64/+63: 

Control value displayed with range -64 to +63. This is best suited to a parameter with a bi-directional increase/

decrease (zero position in the middle) e.g. track pan.
