Control Change Parameters, Control Change Field

CONTROL CHANGE PARAMETERS

The following list of parameters can be accessed if the pad event type is set to “Note”.

MIDI CHANNEL FIELD

This field sets the MIDI Port and Channel which the knob will use to transmit messages. You can assign knobs to one of two MIDI Ports, A or B, and to one of 16 MIDI Channels on each port (i.e. A14). You can also assign a knob to use the MIDI Common Channel.

	1.	Use the [<] button to select MIDI Port/Channel field.
	2.	While in MIDI Port/Channel field, use [VALUE] dial to select desired MIDI
		Port and Channel.
MIDI PORT/CHANNEL FIELD	3.	Use the [>] button to select the next field.
	Note: When not used via USB, only knobs assigned to port A will be transmitted
	via the 5-pin MIDI port on the back of the MPK25.

CONTROL CHANGE FIELD

In this field you can set which Control Change Number the pad will transmit when it is pressed.

1.Use [<] or [>] buttons to select Control Change field.

2.While in Control Change field, use [VALUE] dial to select desired Control Change Number.

3.Use the [>] button to select the next field.

Note: To be able to control a parameter in your DAW or sound module with a

CONTROL CHANGE FIELDknob, both the parameter and the knob need to be set to the same Controller Number.

MINIMUM RANGE FIELD

This field is used to specify the minimum value that the knob can output.

1.Use [<] or [>] buttons to select Minimum Range field.

2.While in Minimum Range field, use [VALUE] dial to select desired minimum value.

3.Use the [>] button to select the next field.

Tip: Sometimes you might not want the full 0-127 range of control that a knob automatically defaults to. Often, reducing the value range of the knob might actually give you more precise control over the parameter it is controlling. For example, if you are using one of the knobs to control a synced delay line, there might only be about 10 available values for the sync delay time (1/2, 1/4, 1/8 note, etc.). Therefore, it wouldn’t make much sense to have the knobs transmit the full 128 MIDI control values. Instead, try setting the maximum value of the knob to 10.

MAXIMUM RANGE FIELD

This field is used to specify the maximum value that the knob can output.

1.Use the [<] or [>] buttons to select Maximum Range field.

2.While in Maximum Range field, use [VALUE] dial to select desired maximum value.

Tip: Setting the maximum value of a controller lower than the minimum value will cause the knob behave inversely.
