CONTROL CHANGE PARAMETERS
The following list of parameters can be accessed if the pad event type is set to “Note”.
MIDI CHANNEL FIELD
This field sets the MIDI Port and Channel which the knob will use to transmit
messages. You can assign knobs to one of two MIDI Ports, A or B, and to one
of 16 MIDI Channels on each port (i.e. A14). You can also assign a knob to use
the MIDI Common Channel.
1. Use the [<] button to select MIDI Port/Channel field.
2. While in MIDI Port/Channel field, use [VALUE] dial to select desired MIDI
Port and Channel.
3. Use the [>] button to select the next field.
Note: When not used via USB, only knobs assigned to port A will be transmitted
via the 5-pin MIDI port on the back of the MPK25.
CONTROL CHANGE FIELD
In this field you can set which Control Change Number the pad will transmit
when it is pressed.
1. Use [<] or [>] buttons to select Control Change field.
2. While in Control Change field, use [VALUE] dial to select desired Control
Change Number.
3. Use the [>] button to select the next field.
Note: To be able to control a parameter in your DAW or sound module with a
knob, both the parameter and the knob need to be set to the same Controller
Number.
MINIMUM RANGE FIELD
This field is used to specify the minimum value that the knob can output.
1. Use [<] or [>] buttons to select Minimum Range field.
2. While in Minimum Range field, use [VALUE] dial to select desired minimum
value.
3. Use the [>] button to select the next field.
Tip: Sometimes you might not want the full 0-127 range of control that a knob
automatically defaults to. Often, reducing the value range of the knob might
actually give you more precise control over the parameter it is controlling. For
example, if you are using one of the knobs to control a synced delay line, there
might only be about 10 available values for the sync delay time (1/2, 1/4, 1/8
note, etc.). Therefore, it wouldn’t make much sense to have the knobs transmit
the full 128 MIDI control values. Instead, try setting the maximum value of the
knob to 10.
MAXIMUM RANGE FIELD
This field is used to specify the maximum value that the knob can output.
1. Use the [<] or [>] buttons to select Maximum Range field.
2. While in Maximum Range field, use [VALUE] dial to select desired maximum
value.
Tip: Setting the maximum value of a controller lower than the minimum value
will cause the knob behave inversely.
