You have two different methods to choose from: MIDI Program Bank Mode This mode is active as soon as you power the Z-15 foot controller up and the ENGL logo runs across the display.

ENGL 580 MIDI Preamp's master volume or the mute circuit of various ENGL amps and rack units offering this option, this feature can be quite useful, particularly if you don't have an external expression pedal to use for this purpose.
MIDI Program Bank Mode A tip from the designer: The ENGL foot controller sends data via the selected MIDI channel. Which channel you choose doesn't matter unless you want to work with several MIDI devices in a MIDI loop and address and control a specific device via MIDI. To do this, the receiver and foot controller's MIDI channel assignments must match.

The number of MIDI patches on the MIDI device may be limited (look this up in the MIDI device's operating manual). -> Is your ENGL amp or ENGL MIDI peripheral device equipped with a display providing visual confirmation? If not (as is the case with the E670, E570 and Z-7), perhaps you have not programmed different settings (presets) to the MIDI patches.

Example: On the E580 Preamp, controller number 7 has a fixed assignment to master volume. If you use a continuous controller on the ENGL Z-15 to address this function, you must assign controller number 7 to it in the appropriate Controller Setup routine.
