OPTIONAL MC-1 REMOTE
The ADA MC-l is a universal MIDI FOOT CONTROLLER that permits sending program
change commands to the MB-1 and the rest of your MIDI equipment.
MIDI DISPLAY MODES
The MB-1 has two display modes. In the MIDI display mode, the display shows MIDI
Program numbers (1-128). "Internal Program" displays only Internal programs 1 through 256.
Factory presets cannot be accessed via MIDI. Page 12 explains how to load these to internal
programs thus allowing MIDI access.
MIDI MAPPING
The MIDI mapping feature allows you to "translate" any MIDI Program number received at
the MB-1 's MIDI IN port to the MB-1 's INTERNAL PRGM numbers (1-256). The MB-1 's
MIDI THRU port will pass thru the MIDI Program number received at the MIDI IN port to
subsequent connected MIDI devices. Mapped program numbers will not be sent to
subsequent connected MIDI devices.
The MB-1 can be used as a MIDI Controller to subsequent MIDI devices that are connected
to the MB-1 's MIDI OUT port. The MB-1 functions as a controller only in "MIDI PRGM"
mode.
1. Press the MIDI PRGM button
2. Using BANK, up/down arrows, and 0 to 9 buttons, select the MIDI Program number
(1 to 128) to be mapped or "translated"
3. Press the INTERNAL PRGM button twice. It will flash and the current Map
assignment will be displayed
4. Using BANK, up/down arrows, and 0 to 9 buttons select the desired Internal Program
number (1 to 256.) This is the number which the MB-1 will change to when a MIDI
Program number is received from the MB-1 MIDI IN port (or the MB-1 front panel
when the MB-1 is in the MIDI display mode)
5. Press the INTERNAL PRGM button again to store your mapping assignment and exit
mapping mode. Note: You may map multiple MIDI Program numbers to a
single mapped Internal Program number.
ONE-TO-ONE MIDI MAPPING
The MB-1 is shipped from the factory with a one-to-one mapping assignment, i.e. MIDI
program change number 1 received at the MIDI IN port will change the MB-1 to program
number 1, program change 2 will change the MB-1 to INTERNAL program number 1. If you
want to restore the one-to-one relationship for all 128 MIDI Program numbers:
1. Press the STORE button. It will light
2. Press the BANK button and while holding down the BANK button press the number 2
button.
