MIDI
Handson supports various MIDI control surfaces; it allows you to control Handson' user interface (UI) 
through the buttons and faders on the MIDI controller. The software ships with a list of predefned Midi-
maps. A midi-map fle describes the MIDI controller and how its features (buttons, faders, etc) are 
mapped to the Handson UI. 
To set up Handson for use with your 
MIDI controller, select the appropriate 
INPUT DEVICE and optionally an 
OUTPUT DEVICE. The output device is 
used by Handson to provide feedback 
to MIDI controller's LEDs and 
motorized faders. Then select the MAP 
that corresponds to your MIDI 
controller.
Please take into account that the MIDI controller needs to be connected to the computer before 
Handson starts up; Handson only scans for MIDI devices at start up. After that you would need to use 
the REFRESH button to scan again.
Please refer to page 24 for diagrams describing the layout of various Midi-maps.

The Remote feature allows you to view the patch including addresses and dip-switch settings per 
fxture in real-time from your browser-enabled mobile device. It also allows you to trigger the playback-
buttons remotely.
To connect your device to this web-
based feature you would need to make 
sure that the checkbox is enabled and 
then type in your browser the exact 
address as displayed in the BROWSE TO 
feld.
Handson takes the IP address currently 
assigned to the computer’s network interface. You cannot change this address in Handson, that would 
need to be done in the computer’s network settings. Please do take into account that Handson uses the 
frst available network interface, if you have multiple (e.g. wired network and WIFI), there is no way of 
choosing which interface Handson uses. This means that sometimes you would need to disable one 
interface to force Handson to use the preferred interface. 
Please refer to page 29 for step-by-step instructions for setting up this feature with an iPhone.
