Rotary Encoders
Turning an encoder produces MIDI CC

(continuous controller) messages with a

unique controller number in two’s

complement binary encoding. Refer to the

MIDI mapping diagram for the differences

between Map 1 and 2 for these controls.
These encoders feature a built in

momentary push switch. Pressing down on

the encoder knob activates the switch and

sends a “note on” MIDI message, releasing

the switch sends a corresponding “note off”

message.

Jog Wheel
The jog wheel features an optical encoder,

which produces CC messages in a similar

way to the other encoders. Switches are

located at the top, bottom, left and right of

the wheel. Pushing down on the face of the

wheel sends note on / note off messages.
