Use this socket to supply the UMX25 with current from an external power supply unit (not included).

The USB connector of the UMX25. The connector (type B) on the device is connected using the cable supplied to a free slot on the host computer (where you will find a type A connector). It is compatible with the USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 standards.

In addition to the connection to the computer, you can use the MIDI OUT to connect additional MIDI devices, so that the UMX25 transforms into a fully-featured, easily accessible MIDI interface for your host computer.

Use the FOOT SWITCH connector to connect a sustain pedal. This interface is factory preset and assigned to the MIDI parameter “Foot Pedal” (CC 64), which represents a switch controller. When the pedal is pressed (and held) in normal Play mode, it generates a controller with the value 127. When the pedal is released, the controller falls back

to 0 (typical piano sustain pedal behavior). Apart from that the pedal assignment is the same as the button assignment, i.e. you can assign any MIDI controller to it.

The POWER switch is used to switch the unit on and off.

Please close all programs if you want to switch off the UMX25 while the computer is running or terminate the USB connection.

4. OPERATION

This chapter gives you a detailed description of how to operate the UMX25. Please note: There is an explicit difference between

buttons (see control elements, ) and keys (control element, )! Do not mix them up!

4.1 PLAY MODE

After power-up the UMX25 enters Play mode. You can start playing, modify filter sweeps with the rotary controls, determine program changes intuitively, realize panorama changes, control soft synths, and so on…

4.1.1The FACTORY MEMORY

The FACTORY MEMORY is the internal memory storing the basic settings of the UMX25. The most important feature of the FACTORY MEMORY is the controller map described in point . These settings define a number of useful parameters and are automatically loaded when the device is switched on.

Assignments that are modified during a session, will be discarded when the unit is switched off. In order to save the modified assignments, the UMX25 has been provided with a USER MEMORY.

4.1.2 The USER MEMORY

Settings that are stored in the USER MEMORY, are stored permanently in the internal flash ROM and will be retained even after switching the unit off.

Change to the USER MEMORY by pressing button 6. When you access the USER MEMORY for the first time, it stores a copy of the FACTORY MEMORY settings. As soon as you make changes to the existing controller map, they are stored automatically without your intervention.
