Launching The Midi Control Center; The Virtual Keyboard And Its Controls; The Global And Selected Control Parameter Sections; Changing Midi Settings - Arturia Keylab Series User Manual

4.3 Launching the MIDI Control Center

Before launching the MIDI Control Center, make sure your Arturia KeyLab keyboard is
connected to your computer.
The MIDI Control Center is specifically designed for the KeyLab keyboard; it will not work with another MIDI
device.

4.3.1 The virtual keyboard and its controls

The MIDI Control Center utility will detect the KeyLab keyboard automatically and load
its current configuration into the computer memory.

4.3.2 The Global and Selected Control Parameter sections

The top area of the screen is where the keyboard settings are edited. There are Global
parameters such as MIDI Channel and Velocity curve, and the Selected Control
Parameters section allows you to determine the MIDI controller setting for each control.
The lower half of the screen corresponds to the actual components of your KeyLab
controller and is used to select a knob, pad, control Wheel or the pedal inputs so you can
alter its MIDI assignment.
Note: the Edit, Octave, Pitch Bend controls do not perform a function of their own inside
the MIDI Control Center
See sections 4.4.3 through 4.4.6 for a description of the Send to Keyboard (4.4.3),
Default Values (4.4.4), and Load/Save buttons (4.4.6 and 4.4.5, respectively).
