The Command Functions section serves multiple purposes which are listed
below.
• Beats Part enable/disable. See page 22.
• Assignable & latchable note triggers. See page 76.
• Preset select keys. See page 77.
• External preset select keys. See page 78.
• Preset Edit menu jump keys. See below.
When the preset selection LED is lit, the command buttons can be used to
quickly select sixteen of your favorite presets. In this mode, pressing one of
the command buttons selects the preset you have assigned to the button.
See page 77 for more information.
Select Triggers mode by pressing the mode select button so that the
"Triggers" LED is illuminated. Now the 16 buttons work like keyboard
notes. Each of the 16 buttons can be assigned to any MIDI note, on any
MIDI Channel (01-16), with any velocity (0-127), and can be set to be
latched or momentarily on. Latched note will hold until the button is
pressed again. Latched notes will be indicated by the LEDs. Trigger keys are
assigned from the Controllers menu. See page 76 for more information.
Whenever you are in the Preset Edit menu, the sixteen command buttons
function as "jump" buttons to the various screens in the Preset Edit menu.
The jump location is labelled directly below each button.
Pressing a jump button instantly takes you to the first screen in the selected
category. Pressing the button again takes you to the second screen in the
category and so on. Repeated pressing will rotate you back to the first
screen in the category.
