Assigning Controls to MIDI messages
Since the Mixer and Instrument presets are read-only, the first 4 functions C1-E1 applies only to Presets and cannot be
selected if either Mixer or the Instrument [Inst.] preset is selected. To enter the Setup menu’s assign functions, please do the
following:
Press [Preset]
Press [setup]
The display now reads {S.E.t.} with the 3 display dots {…} blinking
The Setup menu is now active and the keyboard no longer send MIDI notes when you press the keys. To exit the Setup
menu, press [Setup] again at any time.
Control Assign (C1)
This function allows you to change the MIDI CC number of a control. (if applicable. Assignment type has to be MIDI CC).
Most of the controls by default are assigned to send MIDI CC message type. Here is how it works:
Press the low C1 on your keyboard to select Control Assign. The display reads {CC}
Move or press a control. The value you see in the display is the currently assigned value (000-127)
Change the value in decrements/increments using the keys with the -/+ symbols screened above (C3/C#3). The value
assignment is instant so if you exit the Setup menu after making changes, those changes remain active
You can also enter a specific value using the white number keys spanning G3–B4 (G4-B5 on LX61). Press Enter (C5) to
accept the change.
MIDI Channel Assign (D1)
Each control within a preset can be assigned to send on a specific MIDI channel or follow the Global MIDI channel.
Press D1. The display reads {Ch}

specifications allow for 16 MIDI channels. In addition Impact LX give you the option to select 000 which is the selection
for the Global MIDI channel. Most of the default presets assign controls to the Global MIDI channel so you may see this
value when you move a control.
Change the value in decrements/increments using the keys with the -/+ symbols screened above (C3/C#3). The value
assignment is instant so if you exit the Setup menu after making changes, those changes remain active
