U-CONTROL UMX610/UMX490 User Manual
The enormous value range of a total of 128 x 128 = 16,384 different values is
therefore available to you via the BANK SELECT command. This theoretically
means that you could use external devices which support the same amount of
different banks.
If you consider that each of these banks again contains another 128 individual
programs, you will receive the unbelievably large number of 2,097,152 different
options to organize these programs.
1) Press the ASSIGN push-button and hold it down.
2) Press one of the 16 channel keys ( CH 1 ) through ( CH 16 ), or press the

The BANK MSB has now been defined.
Examples:
• Press ( 1 ) and ( 4 ) if you have decided on MSB 14, for example.
• Press ( 1 ), ( 0 ) and ( 7 ) if you would like to select MSB 107.
5) Now define the
BANK LSB
value of the BANK LSB with the already familiar procedure (see step 4).
The same entry rules apply as for the BANK MSB.
You have defined the bank in which the desired program will be called
up in steps 4 and 5. Now all you have to define is the program itself:

Example:
You want to select preset No. 49 in bank 25 of an external device on channel
14 via the UMX. Only the LSB will be used to describe the bank, since the bank
number remains less than 128. The MSB in this case equals 0.
1) Press and hold the ASSIGN push-button.
2) Press the channel key ( CH 14 ).
3) Release the ASSIGN push-button.

4.2.9 Other functions of the octave shift buttons

The OCTAVE SHIFT push-buttons of the device are in their initial state every time
the UMX is switched on (see Table 3.1). Further special functions can be assigned
to both push-buttons in the ASSIGN mode in addition to the already covered
functions regarding direct program change and octave transposition:
a) Transposition in individual semitone steps
b) Sequential scrolling in program libraries
c) Optional controller functions
◊
As soon as you assign a function to one of the two push-buttons,
the second push-button will automatically assume the same function,
however, it is still restricted in its functionality. It is not capable of
sending data until you assign a function to this push-button with the
ASSIGN procedure.
a) Transposition in individual semitone steps
1) Press the ASSIGN push-button and hold it down.
2) Press the key.
TRANSP +/-
3) Release the ASSIGN push-button.
4) Finally, press the ENTER key. In order to discard your assignments,
please press the CANCEL key or press the ASSIGN push-button again.
The ASSIGN LED will go off in all 3 cases.
Pressing the right hand one of the two push-buttons causes a shift by one
semitone upward pressing the left hand one leads to a shift by one semitone
downward. Pressing both push-buttons cancels all transpositions.
◊
A keyboard can consist of a maximum of 128 semitones according to
the MIDI standard. If you have reached the lower or upper end of this
tone range with the transposition function, you cannot exceed the
highest or lowest tone despite continued pressing of the transposition
push-button. This also applies to the transposition in octave steps.
