This screen allows you to program the 16 trigger buttons to play note
events. Note: This screen is not available when the "Trigger Buttons
Function" (see previous page) is set to "Play Beats Parts".
Set the previous screen to "Play Note Events". 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
notes will hold until the button is pressed again. Latched notes will be
indicated by the LEDs.
Simply move the cursor from the "TRIGGERS" field and play a note to enter
the MIDI key and velocity. Pressing a Trigger Button anytime while in this
screen automatically selects that trigger button for programming!
