MIDI Setup Guide: MIDI Control Configuration

MIDI ConTrol ConfIguraTIon
In this chapter we’ll show you how to configure specifically what MIDI Control messages your POD
Studio/TonePort’s controllers transmit when you access them. This is all accomplished using the Line
6 MIDI Control Settings dialog, where you can view and edit these settings, as well as create and save
your own customized preset control mappings to load any time.
Default MIDI Control Settings
UX2, UX8 & KB37 ship with a default set of MIDI Control Messages assigned to their controllers,
as shown in the handy table below. Your device will send these MIDI commands right “out of the
box”, without any further configuration needed. Note that by default your Line 6 device sends out
two different sets of MIDI Control messages - one set is transmitted directly to the Line 6 GearBox
application (if launched), and the other transmitted to the POD Studio/TonePort USB MIDI Out
port.
There are a number of preset “Control Mappings” available for you to select from within the Line 6
Audio-MIDI Devices dialog. The GearBox & MIDI Default preset is the one initially loaded for your
device. This preset consists of the following controller settings:
