▪ HSB mode: This mode is only available when the pad's state is controlled via MIDI feed-
back (see below). In HSB mode, you can precisely define from within your MIDI target
which color the pad will use.
▪ Indexed mode: This mode is only available when the pad's state is controlled via MIDI
feedback (see below). In Indexed mode, you can precisely define from within your MIDI tar-
get which color the pad will use.
Controlling the Button/Pad State
The On/Off state of each button or pad can be controlled in two ways — internally via your ac-
tions on the button/pad, or remotely via MIDI feedback:
▪ In Toggle mode, both controls are enabled: both your actions on the button/pad and the
possibly incoming MIDI messages are taken into account to update the button/pad and
LED state.
▪ In Trigger, Gate, and Increment mode, you can choose which control mode (internal or re-
mote via MIDI) you want to use. This is done via the
the Inspector.
