Message mode
In Message mode you can transmit various types of MIDI messages.
Message mode is divided into sixteen pages.
From Play mode, hold down the [MESSAGE] key. The main display shows
“MesgPad?”, and pads [1] through [8] – which you can press to transmit a
message immediately – will light. While holding [MESSAGE], press one of
the pads described below to transmit the corresponding MIDI message.
Alternatively, you can hold down the [EXIT] key and press the [MESSAGE]
key; the main display will indicate “MesgPad?”, and the microKONTROL
will wait for you to select a message. From this state you can press a pad to
transmit a message. If you press a pad [1]–[8] to transmit a message, the
microKONTROL will remain in this state after the message is transmitted
(Mode Lock). You can then press another pad to transmit another message.
To exit this state, press the [EXIT] key. If you press a pad [9]–[16] to specify
and then transmit a message, the microKONTROL will return to Play mode
after the message is transmitted.
Pads [1]–[8] transmit the following preset MIDI messages.
Pads [9]–[16] let you specify and transmit the following messages.
The Setting mode USB-MIDI Port parameter specifies the port from
which the message will be transmitted. (
