MIDI, Page 4 of 7 - Switch Type
The fourth page of the MIDI program, Switch Type, determines how each
instant access switch will operate. This feature allows for each switch to be
assigned as either a latching, Momentary or Hold switch, and is global for all
presets.
• A LATCHING switch type sends the “on” control value when the
switch is pressed and turns the l.e.D. on. Pressing the switch a sec-
ond time sends the “off” control value and turns the l.e.D. off. When
changing presets, the “on/off” status stored for the preset is always
sent.
• A MOMENTARY switch type sends the “on” control value when the
switch is pressed, turning the l.e.D. on, and the “off” control when the
switch is released (the l.e.D. remains on). The l.e.D. changes status
once each time the switch is pressed and released. When changing
presets, if the new switch status is different than the current status, the
“on” value is sent followed by the “off” value 5 milliseconds later. The
MIDI control change that is associated with this switch is sent only if
the switch status changes.
• A HOLD switch type is the same as a momentary switch type, except
that the l.e.D. turns on when the switch is pressed and turns off when
the switch is released. When changing presets, switches assigned as
HOlD switches do sot send a MIDI message.
If the switches have been assigned names (as described in SETUP, Page 5),
the names of the instant access switches will be displayed instead of the switch
numbers. Only those switches which are configured as instant access switches
will be accessible.
To assign the type of each instant access switch:
() With the 2nD l.e.D. still lit, press the "" switch to access the next
page of the MIDI program, Switch Type. (If the MIDI raider is not al-
ready in the MIDI editing mode, press “2nD”, then “MIDI”, followed
by “" three times.)
() Use the "InC" and "DeC" switches directly below the displayed in-
stant access switch to select the switch to be assigned a switch type.
() Use the "InC" and "DeC" switches directly below the displayed
switch type to select a type for the selected switch.
Repeat steps  and  for each of the instant access switches/pedals
