Assign a chord to a key using a MIDI keyboard
It can be faster to use your MIDI keyboard when assigning chords to trigger keys. The Learn
process can be started and stopped by playing an assigned note on your MIDI keyboard.
1 Click the disclosure triangle at the lower left to open the extended parameters.
2 Choose the MIDI note number you want to use as a remote control for the Learn button from
the Learn Remote pop-up menu.
Choose O if you no longer want to use a MIDI note as the Learn button remote control.
3 Play the note selected as the Learn button remote control on your MIDI keyboard.
The Learn button label changes to “Trigger Key” and the button begins to blink.
4 Play a trigger key—within the chord trigger range—on your MIDI keyboard.
This enables the trigger key for chord assignment. The Learn (Trigger Key) button label changes
to “Chord.”
5 Play the note or notes you want to assign to the trigger key on your MIDI keyboard.
As you play each note, you will hear it and any previously assigned notes in the chord.
Play assigned notes a second time to unassign or remove them from the chord.
6 Play the note selected as the Learn button remote control on your MIDI keyboard to end
chord assignment.
You can repeat steps 3–6 to assign a dierent chord to each key in the chord trigger range when
in Multi Chord mode. In Single Chord mode, only one chord can be learned.
