Korg KONTROL49 owner manual Quick-assign for control changes, Using the trigger pads to input text

■Using the trigger pads to input text

An alphanumeric character, symbol, or blank is assigned to each pad. Insert (insert a blank at the cursor location), Delete (delete the character at the cursor location and tighten up the subsequent characters), and Clear (erase the character at the cursor location) functions are also provided. The selected character will alternate each time you strike a pad [5]–[8] or [10]–[16]. Move the cursor to the position at which you want to input a character, and use the trigger pads to input or edit characters.

[1] [2] [3] [4]

[5] [6] [7] [8]

[9] [10] [11] [12]

[13] [14] [15] [16]

■Using the encoders and sliders to input text

Regardless of the cursor location, you can use the sliders and encoders to input the characters shown in the display. Use slider 1 or encoder 1 to input the first character (counting from the left edge) of the display. Use slider 2 or encoder 2 to input the second character of the display. In this way, sliders 1– 8 or encoders 1–8 will edit the eight characters shown in the display. However, you’ll need to use sliders 1–8 to input the name of a parameter assigned to an encoder. Likewise, you’ll need to use encoders 1–8 to input the name of a parameter assigned to a slider.

Operation–Setting mode

Quick-assign for control changes

In Play mode, there’s a shortcut for assigning a new control change message to an encoder (or slider if making a slider assignment). This method is valid only for an encoder or slider which is already assigned to a control change message.

You cannot use this method for an encoder or slider to which you have assigned NRPN or RPN.

1	In Play mode, hold down the [SETTING] key and turn the desired
	encoder (or slider if making a slider assignment) to select a new control

change message.

The sub-display will show the new assignment for the encoder or slider.

	MIDI channel MIDI message type Control change number
2	The new control change assignment will be updated when you release
	the [SETTING] key or operate a different controller. If you decide to

cancel, press the [EXIT] key before you release the [SETTING] key.

The MIDI channel will still be set to the “MIDI Channel” specified in the Encoder assignment Slider assignment page.

If you want to keep the changes you’ve made, save them in Scene mode. If you turn off the power or select a different scene without saving, your changes will be discarded. For details, see “Scene mode–[16] WRITE” (☞p.55).
