Hold Enable

As mentioned in “Setup—settings” on page 12, the Hold pedal control allows you to hold

MIDI notes while you continue to play your instrument. To make this feature even more

useful, you can configure zones to respond, or to not respond, to the hold pedal. In this

way, some zones will hold when you press the Hold pedal, and some zones will remain

unaffected. This can be used, for example, to sustain synth-pad sounds while playing a

lead synth on top of it.

If the “hold” option is on, the zone will respond to the Hold pedal. If it is off, the Hold pedal

will not affect that zone.

Chromatic Mode

The i2Mmusicport accurately tracks the pitch of notes and outputs pitch-bend MIDI

messages but sometimes it is preferable to send notes without pitch-bend information

(

e.g.,

when playing piano sounds). This can be done by selecting the chromatic option.
