INCREMENT/DECREMENT PARAMETERS (knobs only)

The endless knobs on the MPD26 may also be used as an increment/decrement NRPN function. This allows you to use the knob to increment and decrement through parameters as opposed to sending an absolute value. Please note that the implementation of NRPN functions depends strictly on the software with which you will be using the MPD26. Consult your software’s documentation to find out how NRPN functions are supported.
