PAD THRESHOLD FIELD
PAD THRESHOLD – Page 7
PAD THRESHOLD is the minimum force required to activate the pads.
If you experience “ghost” triggering due to stage vibrations, you may
wish to set this threshold higher. On the other hand, if you find it
difficult to cause the pads to output sounds when playing them lightly,
you may wish to set this value to a lower number.
1. While in Global Mode, use [>] button to scroll to PdThresh (page
7).
2. Turn [VALUE] dial to select Pad Threshold.
3. Press [ENTER] to set Pad Threshold.
KEYBOARD TRANSPOSITION – Page 8
KEYBOARD TRANSPOSITION allows you to transpose
MPK61/MPK88’s keyboard up or down.
1. While in Global Mode, use [>] button to scroll to Transpos (page
8).
2. Turn [VALUE] dial to select Transposition in semi-tones.
3. Press [ENTER] to set Transposition.
Note: Transposing the keyboard will have a global effect on the
MPK61/MPK88.
MIDI CLOCK – Page 9
MIDI CLOCK is used to synchronize devices together. In addition,
MIDI Clock on the MPK61/MPK88 is used in conjunction with the Note
Repeat and Arpeggiator features to determine the location of the MIDI
notes output when using either of these features. The MPK61/MPK88
can be a master or slave for MIDI Clock transmission and reception.
MIDI Clock
1. While in Global Mode, use [>] button to scroll to MIDI CLK (page
9).
2. Turn [VALUE] dial to select “Internal” if you would like to generate
MIDI Clock internally or “External” if you would like to slave the
MPK61/MPK88 to an external MIDI Clock source.
3. Press [ENTER] to set MIDI Clock source.
Note: If “External” has been selected as a MIDI Clock source, the
[TAP TEMPO] button will be disabled.
TAP TEMPO AVERAGE – Page 10
When using [TAM TEMPO] button to set the tempo, the MPK61/MPK88
averages a number of taps in order to determine the tempo. You can
set the number of taps used to determine the TAP TEMPO AVERAGE
in this field.
1. While in Global Mode, use [>] button to scroll to Tap AVG (page
10).
2. Turn [VALUE] dial to select number of taps.
3. Press [ENTER] to set tap average.
