When you release the [PROG CHANGE/WRITE/ALL

PAD] key, a program change message will be transmit-

ted with the program number that was shown in the

display.

Then the display will return to indicating the scene

number.

This program change message is transmitted on the MIDI

channel of each trigger pad and pedal whose MIDI Transmit

Channel is set to other than Disable.

Transmitting MIDI messages

Various useful types of MIDI message are preassigned to

trigger pads [1]–[3]. In addition, you can use the included

Editor/Librarian software to create User Messages and

assign them to trigger pads [4]–[8]. In Play mode, hold down

the [MESSAGE/EXIT] key and press a trigger pad [1]–[8] to

transmit the assigned MIDI message.

[1] PANIC

This transmits All Note Off [Bn, 7B, 00], All Sound Off [Bn,

78, 00], and Reset All Controllers [Bn, 79, 00] messages on

all MIDI channels.

Execute this if the connected software becomes unstable, or

if you experience “stuck notes” on your MIDI sound module.

1

Hold down the [MESSAGE/EXIT] key and press trigger

pad [1].

All Note Off, All Sound Off, and Reset All Controllers

messages will be transmitted on all MIDI channels. The

display will show a graphic indication of the transmis-

sion.

This message is transmitted to both port A and port B,

regardless of the port you specified (p.21-26 “USB-MIDI

Port”).

[2] NOTE OFF

This transmits an All Note Off [Bn, 7B, 00] message on all

MIDI channels.

1

Hold down the [MESSAGE/EXIT] key and press trigger

pad [2].

All Note Off messages will be transmitted on all MIDI

channels. The display will show a graphic indication of

the transmission.

This message is transmitted to both port A and port B,

regardless of the port you specified (p.21-26 “USB-MIDI

Port”).

[3] GM ON

This transmits a GM System On [F0, 7E, 7F, 09, 01, F7]

message.

1

Hold down the [MESSAGE/EXIT] key and press trigger

pad [3].

A GM System On message will be transmitted. The

display will show a graphic indication of the transmis-

sion.

This message is transmitted to the port you specify (p.21–26

“USB-MIDI Port”).

[4]–[8]

USER1–5

This will transmit the MIDI message you created using the

included Editor/Librarian software.

1

Hold down the [MESSAGE/EXIT] key and press trigger

pad [4]–[8].

The MIDI message you assigned will be transmitted.

The display will show a graphic indication of the

transmission. User message numbers 1–5 correspond to

trigger pads [4]–[8].

These messages will be transmitted to the port you specify

in the Editor/Librarian software. For details, refer to the

owner’s manual for the Editor/Librarian software.

Using a fixed velocity

By turning fixed velocity on, every trigger pad (and the pedal)

will send the same velocity message, regardless of the force

with which you actually strike the trigger pad.

If you want to change the fixed velocity, use Setting mode to

specify the desired Fixed Velocity value. (p.27 “Fixed Velocity

setting”)

1

Press the [FIXED VELOCITY/PRELOAD] key.

Note messages will now be transmitted with a fixed

velocity, and the [FIXED VELOCITY/PRELOAD] key will

light.

2

To defeat this setting, press the [FIXED VELOCITY/

PRELOAD] key to make it go dark.

In Play mode when the [FIXED VELOCITY/PRELOAD] key

is off, a separate velocity value is sent from each of the

trigger pads and the pedal.
