QuNexus Version 1.0
May, 2013
Live Edit Mode is mainly intended for making quick edits on the fly. In Live Edit Mode you can
turn on and off Channel Rotation, change the MIDI output channel, transpose the keyboard, go
into
CoMA
mode, turn Channel Pressure and Poly After Touch on and off, set the bend range,
and send program change messages. It should be noted that these edits do not persist after
changing presets or unplugging QuNexus. Any Live Edits will affect Keyboard Layer only (not
Controller Layer). An illegal entry will just kick you out of Live Edit Mode but any legal entries
made prior to that will be kept.
To enter Live Edit Mode hold the Shift button for approximately two
and a half seconds until the blue LED on the Shift button turns on and
stays lit. To exit just press the Shift button again (you don't have to
hold it down to exit).
When you first enter Live Edit Mode you might see that a few of the LEDs on the keyboard turn
on. This is because the ChnPres, AftTch, CC, and Rotate key buttons all display their state in
Live Edit Mode. All four of these are on in the image below:
These key buttons act as toggles as well to turn Channel Pressure, Poly After Touch, CCs, and
Channel Rotation on and off. Note that if you turn CCs off, all 3 possible CCs from Keyboard
Layer will not output unless you turn them back on.

Since the QuNexus can have multiple data sources outputting from one key, it is often necessary to use the Controller Mapping Assistant (CoMA). CoMA mode allows quick mapping of each available data source one at a time, enabling rapid and efficient software/controller pairings.
