Hint
You can use the CLEAR button above the list to erase all
assignments to control numbers. The PRESET button will
return all control number assignments to their default state.
The contents of the control change table are not saved in
the scene. If desired, you can save this data on a memory
card as a MIDI CTRL TABLE.
Using the MIDI Remote function
“MIDI Remote” allows you to assign MIDI messages to the controllers (faders, encoders, CH [ON] keys, ENCODER [ON]
keys) of the INPUT/ST IN channel strips so that these MIDI messages will be transmitted when you operate these controllers.
This capability can be used for remote control of external MIDI devices such as synthesizers, or to control the parameters of
DAW software or a HDR unit.
While the MIDI Remote function is active, INPUT chan-
nel strip 1–24 functions as MIDI remote channels 1–24,
and ST IN channel strip 1–4 functions as MIDI remote
channels 25–28.
To each controller you can assign a MIDI message consist-
ing of up to sixteen bytes of hexadecimal data. If desired,
you can specify that a value within the message varies
according to the movement of the controller.
Here’s how to specify the MIDI port used by the MIDI
Remote function, and assign a MIDI message to the
desired MIDI remote channel.
1In the DISPLAY ACCESS section, press the
[MIDI/REMOTE] key several times to access the
MIDI SETUP screen shown below.
2In the MIDI REMOTE area at the right of the
screen, select one of the following as the port
from which MIDI messages will be output for
each of the four MIDI Remote banks (BANK A–
D).
Click the / buttons at the left and right of each
box to change the setting, and press the [ENTER] key
(or click within the box) to finalize the setting. If you
select USB or SLOT 1–4, use the box at the right to
specify the port number (1–8) as well.
