Programming & Editing The UC-33
Introduction To UC-33 Programming Options
Each of the UC-33’s 47 controllers can send MIDI cc, RPN/NRPN, GM 1&2 SysEx and even be assigned to individual MIDI channels.
MIDI cc (continuous controller) numbers are part of the standard MIDI specifications and are typically used to control the real-time changing of
parameters in musical equipment. For a complete list of standard MIDI controller numbers from 0 to 131, please see Appendix E on page XX.
Any of the 47 real-time controllers on the UC-33 can be assigned to a MIDI cc number however the 14 assignable buttons have slightly different options
from the 9 faders or 24 rotary controllers.
The following 2 charts show all the transmit messages you can program for each of the 33 fader/controllers and 14 assignable MIDI buttons respectively.
We show you this already at this stage, so you can follow the principle of programming the UC-33 controllers in the following instructions and
examples.
Please pay extra attention to the differences between how you program the faders or controllers and how you program the buttons.
