malletKAT User Manual (ver.07-17-18)
FORWARD/BACKWARD pads.
Changing Parameters:
Any editable parameters on the screen will be blinking. Change these parameters using the
INCREMENT/DECREMENT “black note” pads.
If there is more than one editable parameter on the screen, use the FORWARD/BACKWARD pads to reach them.
Kit Auxiliary Screen Shortcuts:
Because there are so many Kit Settings, they can be accessed by using numeric shortcuts that will skip directly to
that screen. Throughout this manual, more commonly accessed Kit Auxiliary settings will be indicated like this:
Kit Auxiliary Shortcut #12
malletKAT Express
Auxiliary Editing Screens require pressing the Edit Footswitch and Sustain 1 pedal at the same time (See Section
4.1.1(https://alternatemode.com/online-docs/malletkat/#malletkat-express-accessing-editing-functions)
)
To use the shortcut, after hitting the Kit Auxilliary pad, type in the shortcut number using the numeric “black
keys”.
All Kit Auxiliary Screens are listed in this section in alphabetical order for your convenience.
AFTERTOUCH TYPE IS
Short Cut = # 5
Parameters = Channel Pressure, Key Pressure
There are two types of Aftertouch messages that may be selected. One type is Channel Pressure and will affect
notes playing on the current channel. The other type is Polyphonic Key Pressure and this affects only the note
that is associated with the pad that is currently being pressed. Channel Pressure is the one most often used.
AUTOGATE Control
Short Cut = # 59
Parameters = Disabled, Enabled
When Enabled, the gate time is affected by how fast you play.
AUTOGATE CONTROL OVERLAP
Short Cut = # 60
Parameters = .010-6.200 sec
When AUTOGATE is enabled, the gate time is affected by how fast you play by the amount programmed on this
screen. The Overlap setting on this screen is the amount of time the shortened note will play before being turned
off, measured from when the last note was hit.
BANK MSB BANK LSB
Short Cut = # 3,4
Parameters = MSB 00-127, LSB 00-127
The MSB, LSB settings tell the sound module what BANK of sounds to call up. Refer to your sound module’s
instrument listings to nd the right MSB, LSB combination for the Bank of sounds that you are looking for.
If only one bank number is present, set the MSB to 00 then set the LSB to Bank number listed. If your sound
module does not respond correctly, you many need to set the MSB to 01 instead.
Please note that the MIDI Spec calls for the Bank range from 1-128. Some manufacturers prefer to use the
94 / 109
