U-CONTROL UMX25 FOREWORD Dear Customer, Welcome to the team of BEHRINGER users, and thank you very much for expressing your confidence in us by purchasing the U-CONTROL. Writing this foreword for you gives me great pleasure, because it represents the culmination of many months of hard work delivered by our engineering team to achieve a very ambitious goal.
U-CONTROL UMX25 1. INTRODUCTION Thank you for showing your confidence in BEHRINGER products by purchasing the UMX25. The UMX25 is an extremely flexible master keyboard with a controller unit that can be used for a wide array of applications.

U-CONTROL UMX25 2.2.2 Stand-alone operation What settings do I have to make? Where? How? Basically, which control element generates which controller must be set on the UMX25, and how incoming controller commands should be interpreted must be set on the receiving device. When the UMX25 is not linked via USB to a computer, it is automatically set to stand-alone mode. In this case, the UMX25 can only send out MIDI data from its MIDI OUT connector. 3.
U-CONTROL UMX25 Fig. 3.1: Top view The eight buttons B1 – B8 generate switch controllers. Again, these are factory-set functions (see table on the device). Like the rotary controls the buttons can be freely assigned to any controller in ASSIGN mode. In addition to the connection to the computer, you can use the MIDI OUT to connect additional MIDI devices, so that the UMX25 transforms into a fully-featured, easily accessible MIDI interface for your host computer.
U-CONTROL UMX25 4.1.2 The USER MEMORY Settings that are stored in the USER MEMORY, are stored permanently in the internal flash ROM and will be retained even after switching the unit off. Change to the USER MEMORY by pressing button 6. When you access the USER MEMORY for the first time, it stores a copy of the FACTORY MEMORY settings. As soon as you make changes to the existing controller map, they are stored automatically without your intervention.
U-CONTROL UMX25 4.2.5 The SNAPSHOT SEND command The SNAPSHOT command transmits all parameters including their current values: all control element assignments as well as the current channel settings are sent out from the MIDI OUT connector and the USB output of the UMX25. In this way it is possible to transmit the entire UMX25 mapping to a sequencer software at the beginning of a song. The song can then be played back with the final controller values adjusted for it.
