To assign a new shortcut to a command, enter the type of shortcut in the flip
menu "Status".
Note: MIDI commands can also be learned. If you use control change events
for remote controlling, you can choose between "CtrlUpDn" and "CtrlChg" in
the "Status" menu after learning.
 CtrlUpDn: This is a special adaptation for use with a sustain pedal from the
MIDI keyboard. A command is activated only when the pedal is "tapped"
lightly, because, when playing, the sustain pedal is typically held longer than it
takes to actually activate an assigned command.
 NoteOn: Note On events are always transmitted when a key on the MIDI
keyboard is pressed. It may also be possible for other keys of the MIDI
keyboard to transmit Note On events. Please refer to the instructions of your
MIDI device.
 CtrlChg: Control Change events are transmitted to the MIDI device if the
controllers are adjusted. It may be possible to program the MIDI device so that
pressing a key will transmit such a Control Change event. Please refer to the
instructions of your MIDI device.
 PrgChg: Program Change events are actually there to effect a sound change
in the synthesizer.
 PitchWheel: The Pitch Wheel normally serves to modulate the pitch of the
sound played. When using it, a quick movement is all that's necessary to
execute an assigned command.
 Joystick1/2: Use the buttons 1-4 of your joystick to control the Solo Jam
Session. In the field beside it, "Button", enter the corresponding number of the
desired button. Here, you cannot set the channel as joysticks don't have
anything to do with MIDI devices.
 Channel: MIDI Channel 1 is always set as the default. In case your MIDI device
transmits to a different MIDI channel, you can set it here.
 Assign: With this button you can activate the specified MIDI event or the
joystick button as a new shortcut. A warning will be displayed if it has already
been assigned to another command.
 Delete: Deletes the selected keyboard shortcut again.
 Shows all shortcuts assigned to the function. You can assign multiple
shortcuts to a function.
