Kenton Control Freak all versions - Manual (Page 56)

MIDI Analyser Mode
The Control Freak also has a MIDI analyser function.This feature allows you to
see what types of MIDI messages are being transmitted by your master
keyboard, or sequencer. In this way, the Control Freak may be used as a
powerful diagnostic tool if you have a problem with your MIDI set-up.
To enter analyser mode, you must power on the Control Freak whilst holding
the SHIFT button.The Firmware version will then be displayed until the shift
key is released.The display will then show ‘CHANnel’,‘NOTE#’ and ‘VELOCity’,
and will display the relevant data, below the heading.
