U-CONTROL UMA25S

4b. Alternatively, press the EDIT/EXIT push button to cancel

any changes you made and to exit Edit Mode The EDIT LED

goes out.

+

To select the channel in CH ASSIGN Mode, it is

possible to use the +/- push buttons below the

display instead of the keyboard with its labeled

numbers.

+

Please note that the channel assignment in GLOBAL

EDIT Mode differs from the above described GLOBAL

SEND CHANNEL method! For more information, read

Chapter 5.7.

5.6.4 Snapshot Send (Send TX)

The Snapshot Send transmits all values of the current controller

positions. This allows a synchronization of the UMA25S’ settings

with the connected MIDI device.
1.

Press the EDIT push button.

2.

Press the SNAP TX key. The UMA25S transmits the status

of all control elements including the positions of the 8 rotary

knobs, the state of the 8 push buttons, etc.

After sending the snapshot the UMA25S switches to Play Mode.

+

In addition to the Snap TX function, there is also the

Single Preset Dump (see Chapter 5.7). Both of these

functions differ in the type of data they send. With a

Snapshot Send, only the current control values are

transmitted, which are synchronized with the

connected MIDI device. A Single Preset Dump on

the other hand allows the entire content of the

current preset, including the present control

element assignment, to be transmitted. This

function allows you easily to archive and exchange

individual presets with other U-CONTROL users.

5.6.5 Sending a Notes Off message

It may happen that a Note Off message cannot be transmitted

when the connection between the UMA25S and the other devices

is interrupted in which case the notes keep on playing. This kind

of situation requires you manually to trigger the Notes Off

message which mutes all connected sound modules at once.

The Notes Off message is sent to each of the 16 MIDI channels.
1.

Press the EDIT push button.

2.

Press the NOTES OFF key. The Notes Off message is

immediately transmitted. “NOF” appears on the display.

The device automatically switches to Play Mode.

5.6.6

Action Send function

The Action Send function lets you trigger the transmission of a

specific control element. For example, this function allows you

to send a one-off MIDI message which is only supposed to be

assigned to a control element for a short time.
1.

Press and hold down the EDIT push button.

2.

Turn the control element that you want reassigned.

3.

Release the EDIT push button.

4.

Use E9 to E16 to make the assignment.

5.

Press the ACTION SEND key. The MIDI message is trans-

mitted.

6a. Press the EDIT/EXIT push button to discard any changes

you made.

6b. Alternatively, if you want to keep the new assignment,

press ENTER to confirm. Additionally, store the changes in

a preset.

ASSIGN Mode differs from the described method

in GLOBAL EDIT Mode! For more information, read

Chapter 5.6.3.

Device ID Number:
Only change the Device ID number settings when you are working

with several U-CONTROLs at the same time and encounter

problems recognizing the correct device during a SysEx dump.

+

Please note that SysEx dumps can only be received

at the Device ID number from which they were sent!

SysEx Dump ALL:
By turning the E11 rotary knob, the entire memory contents of

the 16 presets is sent as SysEx dump via MIDI. During the dump,

the display flashes “Run”. You can cancel the process by turning

the E11 rotary knob until “End” appears on the display.
In order to receive a SysEx dump, no settings on your equipment

have to be adjusted.

+

CAUTION: If you send an “All SysEx Dump” to the

U-CONTROL, the entire memory content is directly

overwritten! There is no prompt for confirmation

nor a memory safety function!

SysEx Dump SINGLE:
By turning the E12 rotary knob, the current preset is sent as

SysEx dump. During the dump, the display flashes “Run”. You

can cancel the process by turning the E12 rotary knob until “End”

appears on the display.
In order to receive a SysEx dump, no settings on your equipment

have to be adjusted. If you send a single preset to the UMA25S,

the data are first stored in a temporary memory. In order to be

stored permanently, save the data in a memory slot of your

choice (see Chapter 5.1.2).
