Performance
Controllers
Determines Controller Assign settings common to the entire system of the MX49/MX61. You can assign MIDI Control
Change Numbers to the Knobs on the front panel and external controllers. For example, you could use the ASSIGN 1
and 2 knobs to control effect depth for two different effects, while using the Foot Controller to control modulation. These
Control Change Number assignments are known as "Controller Assign."
NOTE As for controllers that are not actually available on the instrument itself, they can be controlled by transmitting the corresponding
MIDI control number from an external MIDI controller.

Half Damper effect (as on a real acoustic piano), set this parameter to "FC3 (Half on)." If you don't need
the Half Damper feature or want to disable it while still using an FC3, set this parameter to "FC3 (Half off)."
