U-CONTROL UMX49/UMX61
4. OPERATION
The LSB part describes each of the 128 MSBs in another 128
individual stages. Both are individually numbered from 0 to 127.
The enormous value range of a total of 128 x 128 = 16.384
different values is therefore available to you via the BANK
SELECT command. This theoretically means that you could use
external devices which support the same amount of different
banks.
If you consider that each of these banks again contains another
128 individual programs, you will receive the unbelievably large
number of 2,097,152 different options to organize these
programs.
1) Press the ASSIGN push-button and hold it down.
2) Press one of the 16 channel keys through
, or press the key.
3) Release the ASSIGN push-button.
4) Press the key. Then press the number keys in
sequence until you have completely entered the desired
BANK MSB number. Only value entries between 0 and
127 are possible. Greater values are ignored by the device.
The BANK MSB has now been defined.
Example:
- Press
and if you have decided on MSB
14, for example.
- Press
, and if you would like to
select MSB 107.
5) Now define the BANK LSB by pressing the key.
Then enter the number value of the BANK LSB with the
already familiar procedure (see step 4). The same entry
rules apply as for the BANK MSB.
You have defined the bank in which the desired program
will be called up in steps 4 and 5. Now all you have to
define is the program itself:
6) Press the key and then press the number keys
in sequence until you have completely entered the desired
program number. Only entries between 0 and 127 are
possible, greater values are ignored by the device. Ready!
7) Finally, press the key. In order to discard your
assignments, please press the key or press the
ASSIGN push-button again. The ASSIGN LED will go off
in all 3 cases.
Example:
You want to select preset No. 49 in bank 25 of an external
device on channel 14 via the UMX. Only the LSB will be used to
describe the bank, since the bank number remains less than
128. The MSB in this case equals 0.
1) Press and hold the ASSIGN push-button.
2) Press the channel key .
3) Press and hold the ASSIGN push-button.
2) Press the channel key.
4) Then, press the key or the key.
5) Press key and then describe bank 25 with push-
buttons and .
6) Define the program: Press the key and then the
and keys for program 49.
7) Press the key.
c) Direct program selection through the two OCTAVE
SHIFT push-buttons.
1) Press the ASSIGN push-button and hold it down.
2) Select the OCTAVE SHIFT push-button which you want to
assign to the program change function.
3) Release the ASSIGN push-button again.
4) Defined the channel by which the program change will be
transmitted. Press one of the 16 channel keys
through
on the keyboard.
5) Press the key. Then press the number keys on
the keyboard in sequence until you have completely entered
the desired preset number. Only value entries between 0
and 127 are possible. Greater values are ignored by the
device.
6) Finally, press the key. In order to discard your
assignments, please select the key or press the
ASSIGN push-button again. The ASSIGN LED will go off in
all 3 cases.

As soon as you have assigned the direct program
selection to one or both OCTAVE SHIFT push-
buttons simultaneously, pressing both push-
buttons will not activate ANYTHING!
4.2.9 Additional functions of the OCTAVE SHIFT push-
buttons
The OCTAVE SHIFT push-buttons of the device are in their initial
state every time the UMX is switched on (refer to table 3.1).
Further special functions can be assigned to both push-buttons
in the ASSIGN mode in addition to the already covered functions
regarding direct program change and octave transposition:
a) Transposition in individual semitone steps
b) Sequential scrolling in program libraries
c ) Optional controller functions

As soon as you assign a function to one of the two
push-buttons, the second push-button will
automatically assume the same function - however,
it is still restricted in its functionality: It is not capable
of sending data until you assign a function to this
push-button with the ASSIGN procedure.

As soon as you assign an individual MIDI channel to
one of the two push-buttons, the other push-button
will also switch to this channel. This also applies if
you return to the GLOBAL CHANNEL.
a) Transposition in individual semitone steps
1) Press the ASSIGN push-button and hold it down.
2) Press the key.
3) Release the ASSIGN push-button.
4) Finally, press the key. In order to discard your
assignments, please press the key or press the
ASSIGN push-button again. The ASSIGN LED will go off
in all 3 cases.
Pressing the right hand one of the two push-buttons causes a
shift by one semitone upward pressing the left hand one leads to
a shift by one semitone downward. Pressing both push-buttons
cancels all transpositions.

A keyboard can consist of a maximum of 128
semitones according to the MIDI standard. If you have
reached the lower or upper end of this tone range
with the transposition function, you cannot exceed
the highest or lowest tone despite continued
pressing of the transposition push-button. This also
applies to the transposition in octave steps.
