Edit Device Menu
Type – Sets the type of device that is in this slot. The menu first prompts you for the device manufacturer, then the
device model. If your device is not listed here, you can use the Generic setting, which will allow you to manually
configure parameters.
Name – Allows you to edit the name shown for this device.
MIDI ChSets the MIDI channel for this device. This number needs to be the same as the channel that is set on the
device itself. Most MIDI devices have a setting titled “MIDI Channel” or “MIDI Receive Channel”, and this is the
parameter you need to change to match the setting here.
Assign Buttons - Brings you to the Assign Buttons, which allows you to assign this device’s MIDI controller messages
to buttons on the Mastermind GT. This button is not available when the device is set to “Generic”.
Set Default ButtonsSets up a page full of instant access buttons for this device. Once this button is pressed, you are
asked which page number you wish to set up. The default buttons will be copied to this page, overwriting any IA
buttons on the page. Other button types (Preset, Bank Up/Down, etc.) retain their original function, but will have a new
instant access button underneath that can be accessed using IA mode. This button will not be visible when editing a
device that doesn’t support this feature.
Set Default PedalsSets the expression pedals to control common features on this device, typically wah and volume
pedal functions. This button will not be visible when editing a device that doesn’t support this feature.
Get Preset NamesCopies the names of all presets from the device to the Mastermind GT. This allows very quick setup
of certain effect processors. This button will not be visible when editing a device that doesn’t support this feature. By
default, this feature will try to read the names of all 384 presets. You can press the Stop button to interrupt the process
if you don’t want or need to read the name of every preset.
PortPress to select the MIDI port this device is connected to either MIDI Out, Remote In or USB. Normal connections
will use the MIDI Out” selection. Use “USB” to communicate with a connected computer.
Preset Offset - Sets the starting preset number for a device. Effect processors typically start numbering their presets
with number 0 or 1. Setting this number correctly will insure that the preset numbers on the Mastermind GT agree with
those on the effect processor.
Max PC # - Sets the maximum program change number accepted by a device. MIDI specifies a maximum number of
127, but not all effect processors have that many presets. Setting this correctly insures that the Mastermind GT doesn’t
send a program change number that’s too large.
Bank Type Sets the type of MIDI bank message accepted by a device. MIDI bank messages are used to access more
than 127 presets on a device. There are several ways this can be done, and the type of banks used will vary from device
to device. The possible settings are: None (no bank support), LSB, MSB and MSB:LSB.
Max Bank # - Sets the maximum bank number accepted by a device. Most devices only support a small number of
banks. This parameter allows you to limit the number of banks to keep from exceeding that number.
Init PCs -None- Initializes all presets for this device. Selecting this option will initialize all presets on the Mastermind
GT to send no program change messages to this device. This is different than turning the Send PC setting off in that it
can be overridden on any preset using the Edit Presets menu and assigning a PC number to this device for one or more
presets.
