[3] PAD (PAD assignment)

In the PAD assignment page, you can assign MIDI messages to the pads,
specify the MIDI channel on which the message will be transmitted, and so
on. You can assign a note message or a control change (CC#) to each pad.
If you assign a control change, the message will be transmitted with a value
of either 0 or 127.
1 Hold down the [SETTING] key and press pad [3].
The [SETTING] key and pad [3] will light, and you will be in the PAD
assignment page. The main display will indicate "PAD Select" (select
the pad that you want to assign).
2 Use the [VALUE] dial or the pads to select the pad that you want to
assign. To make your selection using the pads, simply press the desired
pad.
The pad selected for assignment will blink.
In subsequent pages, you can use the encoders or sliders to select the
pad for which to make settings. Encoders 1–8 correspond to pads 1–8,
and sliders 1–8 correspond to pads 9–16. When you operate an encoder
or slider in any of these pages, the main display will switch to the
setting of the corresponding pad. For example if you operate slider 1 in
the "Message Select" page that follows, the main display will switch to
the setting of pad 9, and pad 9 will blink. Use the [VALUE] dial or pads
to specify the assignment or value.
