Non-Assignable Controls; Store The Preset - Arturia KEYLAB mkII User Manual

5.6. Non-assignable controls

As you can see, almost every button/pad/fader/knob on the front panel can be assigned to
transmit various types of data. Here's a list of those that can't be reassigned:
• Chord / Transpose / Octave – / Octave +
• Pad / Chord mode buttons
• The three Control buttons
• Transport buttons
• Category / Preset / Left arrow / Right arrow
• Center knob
• Part 1 / Part 2 / Live (they select controller banks 1-3)
• MIDI Ch button: can only be used with the keyboard to set the User channel

♪: The Transport buttons always send commands using the MCU / HUI protocols and cannot be
reassigned in any mode.

5.7. Store the preset


!: Following the steps in this section will overwrite one of the 10 User presets. Make sure you've used
the MIDI Control Center to back up anything you don't want to lose.
It's a good idea to save your work frequently, so once you've worked on a few controller
assignments you should store the User preset. Since you're already in User Edit mode you
can take advantage of the keyboard shortcut to start the Store process, so press the top E
key and let's walk through it.
1. The first screen in Store mode asks you to choose one of the 10 User preset
locations.
2. Turn the center knob to select an available User preset.
3. Click the center knob and enter a new name for the preset if you like. Use the
center knob to select a character or letter, and use the Left / Right arrow buttons
to move from one character field to the next.
4. When you are done naming the preset, click the center knob and the preset will
be stored to the selected location.
5. The display will return to the top level of User mode with the new preset selected.

♪: Another way to begin the Save process from within User Edit mode is to press the User button,
after which the display will ask you if you want to save what you have done. If so, click the center knob
and follow the procedures outlined above.
