1.Keyboard: This 49-note keyboard is velocity-sensitive and, in conjunction with the Octave Up/Down buttons, can control a ten-octave range.

2.Octave +/– :Use these buttons to shift the keyboard's range up or down. The display will indicate the current octave. Press both buttons simultaneously to reset the octave shift to "zero."

3.Pitch-Bend Wheel: Moving this wheel sends MIDI Pitch Bend information on a selected MIDI channel and port.

4.Modulation Wheel: Moving this wheel sends continuous controller data—MIDI CC #01 (modulation), by default.

5.Tap Tempo: Tap this button at the desired rate to enter a new tempo.

Note: If you reload the current Preset, the tempo will revert to that Preset's tempo, which you set in Edit Mode.

Important: This feature does not work when the MPK249 is set to External sync.
