Turning the [Data Encoder] scrolls through the Global menu options as described following.
Global channel
This sets a general MIDI channel for the device. When a control is programmed in Control Edit to send on the global channel (value 0), this
menu setting defines which MIDI channel the message is ultimately transmitted on. If the global channel is changed, any controls in any
presets sending on the global MIDI channel, will now send on the channel.
• Move the [Data Encoder] until you see “G Ch”“ in the display.
• Press the [Data Encoder] to select the menu.
• Move the [Data Encoder] to select MIDI Channel 1-16.
• Press [Data Encoder] to set and revert to the Global menu.
Encoder Assign
The Encoder can be used to send MIDI messages, just in case you need an extra control to control output volume for example. Because
the programmed setting is not part of a preset, the encoder‘s assignment is set in the Encoder Assign global menu.
