The following example configures a button to increment the release time of a sound patch on a MIDI instru-
ment, every time it is pressed. You may have to push the button several times while playing notes to hear the
difference.
To configure a button to increment/decrement a MIDI CC value:
1 Select a button as described earlier.
2 Press the Edit button.
3 Press the Control Assign key. The LCD screen will read “ASIGN” and display the currently selected control
(for example “F10”), and the current MIDI CC assignment (for example “146”).
4 Enter 154 using the number keys. This sets the button to increment the MIDI CC value
5 Press the Enter key.
6 Press the Edit button.
7 Press the Data 1 key. The LCD screen will display the currently assigned function (for example “NOTE”), the
selected control (for example “F10”), and the current value.
8 Enter “72” using the number keys. This specifies the MIDI CC for the parameter or function that will be af-
fected.
9 Press the Enter key.
10 Press the Edit button.
11 Press the Data 2 key. The LCD screen will read “MIN” and display the currently selected control (for exam-
ple “F10”), and the current value (for example “64”).
12 Enter 0 using the number keys. This specifies the minimum value.
13 Press the Enter key.
14 Press the Edit button.
15 Press the Data 3 key.
16 Enter 127 using the number keys. This specifies the maximum value.
17 Press the Enter key.
To configure a button to decrement (decrease) a MIDI CC value, assign it to number 153 (see Appendix B, “As-
signable MIDI CC’s”). The minimum and maximum value (range) for each button is set using the Data 2 and
Data 3 parameters respectively.
Each button will only increment or decrement its own parameter value, and this value is independent of any
other button. In other words, assigning one button to increment a parameter and another to decrement the
same parameter will cause the first button to send values such as 1, 2, 3, etc. Pressing the second button will
send values such as 127, 126, 125, etc, and will not decrement from where the first button left off (for example
2, 1, 0).
