Operation–Scene mode

Scene mode

In Scene mode you can select and save scenes, load preset scenes, and transmit and receive data dumps of individual scenes (or scene “sets”) to and from a computer.

Scene mode is divided into five pages.

You can hold down the [SCENE] key and press a pad [1]–[16] to select the scenes listed below or to move to a function page such as for saving a scene. While you hold down the [SCENE] key, the pad of the currently selected scene will blink. Then press one of the following pads to select a scene or enter a page for saving a scene, etc. Alternatively, you can hold down the [EXIT] key and press the [SCENE] key; the main display will indicate “ScenePad?” and the KONTROL49 will wait for you to select a page (Mode Lock). Now you can press a pad to select a page.

Pad No.	Page	Contents

About the OCTAVE SHIFT/CURSOR keys, [ENTER] key, and [EXIT] key

On the [13] MIDI Channel, [15] PRELOAD and [16] WRITE pages, you can use the OCTAVE SHIFT/CURSOR [√]/[®] keys as cursor keys to move between parameters.

When you press the [SCENE] key and a pad to enter one of these pages, the key(s) for the direction(s) in which you can move will light green. You cannot move in a direction in which the key is dark or lit red.

(RED) (GREEN)

: You can move toward the right to another parameter

(GREEN) (RED)

: You can move toward the left to another parameter

When you come to the last parameter in a page, the [ENTER] key will blink. Press the [ENTER] key to execute the Load or Write operation and return to Play mode. If you decide to cancel, press the [EXIT] key.

[1]–[12] Select Scene

Here’s how to select one of the scenes stored in the KONTROL49’s internal memory.

1	Hold down the [SCENE] key and press the pad of the scene number
	you want to use ([1]–[12]).

The pad will blink, and the main display will show the name of the selected scene.

Release the [SCENE] key to return to Play mode.

When you turn on the power, the last-selected scene will be selected.

Be aware that if you have modified the settings of the currently selected scene, re-selecting that scene will revert to the unmodified settings.

Loading a scene merely changes the internal settings of the KONTROL49; it does not cause MIDI messages to be transmitted from the USB connector or MIDI connector.

Never turn off the power while changing scenes; doing so may cause the internal data to be damaged.
