Assignable Switches and DAW Control

Type: The type of message that will be sent. The available settings are CC, Note, Program Change (PrgChange), Program Bank (PrgBank), and Keystroke.

MIDI Channel: This setting determines over which MIDI channel the messages are sent. The available settings are Common, USB A1A16, and USB B1B16.

CCNumber: If CC is the selected Type, this determines the MIDI CC number. The available range is 000127.

MIDI to DIN: This determines whether or not MIDI data is sent to the MIDI Out (On) or not (Off). MIDI data will be sent to MPK261's USB connection regardless of this setting.

Mode: If CC or Note is the selected Type, this determines whether it is in Momentary Mode (sends a CC or Note On message only while pressed and held, stops sending the CC message or sends a Note Off message when released) or Toggle Mode (sends a CC or continuous Note On message when pressed once, stops sending the CC message or sends the Note Off message when pressed once again).

Invert: If CC is the selected Type, the Assignable Switches send 000 as the "off" value and 127 as the "on" value. This determines whether the values sent are normal (Off), as described above, or switched/inverted (On).

Note: If Note is the selected Type, this assigns the note number that will be sent when the switch is pressed.

Velocity: If Note is the selected Type, this assigns the velocity. The available range is 000127.
