MIDI Edit Mode

MIDI Edit Mode lets you edit the parameters of your controls
(minimum values, maximum values, CC or note numbers,
etc.) when used with your DAW or external MIDI device.
To navigate this mode:
• Press Shift and the Control (MIDI) mode button to view
each set of controls (encoders, switches, pads,
footswitch, expression pedal, modulation wheel, and
pitch-bend wheel).
• When viewing the pads, use the Page Left/Right
buttons or Pad Bank buttons to select another bank.
• Use the Cursors to select the parameter you want to edit.
Alternatively, turn or press a control to select it directly.
• Turn the Data Dial to change a value or setting.
• Press the Data Dial when viewing an encoder, switch,
or pad page to return to the normal MIDI Mode
(described earlier).
See the following sections to learn more about using MIDI
Edit Mode.

Selecting Controls

You can select a control to edit in a few different ways:
To edit an encoder, switch, or pad, select it in MIDI Mode as described earlier, and then press the
Data Dial. The display will immediately show the control and its parameters.
If you are already editing an encoder, switch, or pad, and want to edit another control of the same
type, simply turn or press it. The display will immediately show the control and its parameters. For
pads, use the Page Left/Right buttons or Pad Bank buttons at any time to select another bank.
To edit the footswitch, expression pedal, modulation wheel, or pitch-bend wheel, make sure you
are already in MIDI Edit Mode, and then press Shift and the Control (MIDI) mode button to cycle
through all available controls. These additional controls will appear in the display after the pads.

Editing Control Parameters

To edit a control's parameters, use the Cursors to select the desired parameter, and then turn the Data Dial
to change its value or setting. The new value or setting will take effect immediately; you do not need to
confirm your choice or exit MIDI Edit Mode.
You can continue to edit other parameters for this control, or you can select another control to edit its
parameters instead.
To exit MIDI Edit Mode and return to the normal MIDI Mode, press the Data Dial.
