Use this socket to supply the UMX with current from an external power [12]
supply unit (not included).
The [13] USB connector of the UMX. The connector (type B) on the device is
connected using the cable supplied to a free slot on the host computer
(where you will find a type A connector). It is compatible with the USB1.1
and/or USB2.0 standards.
In addition to the connection to the computer, you can use the MIDI OUT to [14]
connect additional MIDI devices, so that the UMX transforms into a fully-
featured, easily accessible MIDI interface for your host computer.
Use the [15] FOOT SWITCH connector to connect a sustain pedal. This port
is factory-set and assigned to the MIDI parameter “Foot Pedal” (CC 64),
which represents a switch controller. When the pedal is pressed (and held)
in normal Play mode, it generates a controller with the value 127. When the
pedal is released, the controller falls back to 0 (typical piano sustain pedal
behavior). Apart from that the pedal assignment is the same as the button
assignment, i.e. you can assign any MIDI controller to it.
The [16] POWER switch is used to switch the unit on and off.
Please close all programs if you want to switch off the UMX while the ◊
computer is running or terminate the USB connection.
Operation4.
In the following, we will explain the operation of the UMX in detail. Please note
the differentiation between push-buttons (refer to control elements (10) and keys
(control element (1))! Please do not confuse these!
PLAY mode4.1
The UMX is in the PLAY mode immediately after it is switched on. Here you can
immediately begin to play, modify the filtering process via the rotary controls,
execute panning, control software synthesizers and so on.
The FACTORY MEMORY4.1.1
The FACTORY MEMORY is the installed memory in which the basic settings of the
UMX are defined. The controller map described under (10) is the most important
item of the FACTORY MEMORY. These settings are automatically loaded after each
start of the device and control many useful parameters.
Instructions which are changed within a session are discarded when the device is
switched off. We have equipped the UMX with a USER MEMORY, in order to still be
able to store changed allocations.
The USER MEMORY4.1.2
Settings which are stored in the USER MEMORY remain stored in the internal
Flash ROM and are retained after the device is switched off.
Change to the USER MEMORY by pressing push-button (6). If you call up the USER
MEMORY for the first time, the settings of the FACTORY MEMORY will be used
initially. As soon as you execute changes in the existing controller map, they are
automatically stored without requiring any further action.
In the USER MEMORY, allocations including channel information of the following
control elements can be permanently stored:
FOOT SWITCH connector•
OCTAVE SHIFT buttons•
VOLUME/DATA fader•
PITCH BEND wheel•
MODULATION wheel•
Rotary controls R1 – R8•
Push-Buttons B1 – B8•
