Edit Mode

Edit Mode is where you can access and adjust the parameters of the Carbon 61 to suit your

needs. To access Edit Mode, press the EDIT button on the top panel of the keyboard. The

button will light red, and the display will read "Set" to indicate that you are in Edit Mode. In

Edit Mode, the first 25 keys on the keyboard become function and numerical keys, and will

not transmit any note data. The last 24 keys will continue to transmit note information in Edit

Mode, so you can see, in real time, how your changes have affected the performance. The

VOLUME fader, PITCH and MODULATION wheels will also continue to function normally, but

their performance data will not be shown on the display. To exit Edit Mode, and return to

Performance Mode, press the EDIT button a second time. The button will no longer light red

once in Performance Mode.

PROG (Program Change)

When pressed, the current program number flashes on the display. To change the program,

either rotate the DATA knob, or enter the new program number using the numerical keys

(0–9). You can enter a program number ranging from 0-127. After you enter the desired

program number, press the ENTER key. The Carbon 61 will transmit the program change, and

the display will stop flashing. If the number entered is out of range, an "-E-" (error) will display

for three seconds, and then return to the last set program number (no information will be

transmitted).

CHANNEL (MIDI Channel)

When pressed, the current MIDI channel number flashes on the display. To change the MIDI

channel that the Carbon 61 is transmitting on, either rotate the DATA knob, or enter the

new program number using the numerical keys. You can enter a number ranging from 1–16.

When you reach the desired channel number, press the ENTER key. The Carbon 61 will be

set to transmit on the new channel, and the display will stop flashing. If the number is out of

range, "-E-" (error) will be displayed for three seconds, and then return to the last set channel

number.
