Controller Assignment Editing
Enter the editing mode by pressing the 2ND button so that the 2ND
LED lights in any access mode. Then press the EDIT FUNCTION SELECT
"
ß" button twice or until "Controller Assignment" scrolls across the
display. Allow the scrolling to finish to enter the Controller Assignment edit
mode. Once the scrolling has finished, "PEDL" will appear. (This is an
abbreviation for "pedal".) In this editing section, the pedal and buttons 5-9
may be assigned a controller number. The pedal should be assigned the
controller number that matches the number of the parameter that the pedal is
to control. For example, the Rocktron ProGAP™'s output level may be
mapped to controller number 8. By assigning the MIDI Mate™'s pedal to
controller 8, the ProGAP™'s output level is now controlled by the MIDI
Mate™'s pedal.
The MIDI Mate™'s pedal may be assigned a different control number
for each preset. In this way you can control the output level parameter in
preset 1, control the treble parameter in preset 2, and control the bass and
gain parameters in preset 4 - just by matching control numbers to the param-
eters you wish to adjust
Buttons 5-9 on the MIDI Mate™ may also be assigned a control
number. These numbers should match a MIDI device's on/off or in/out
parameters. Another example using the Rocktron ProGAP™ would be to
assign the ProGap™'s loop function to control number 9, and assign button 5
(abbreviated as "BTN5") on the MIDI Mate™ to control number 9. Now by
pressing button 5 on the MIDI Mate™ while in the controller access mode,
the ProGap™'s loop would switch in and out with the MlDI Mate™ display-
ing the current status of the loop by the LED over button 5.
The control numbers for the MIDI Mate™ buttons are not assignable
for each preset. Using the example above of button 5 on the MIDI Mate™
being assigned to control number 9, regardless of what preset the MIDI
Mate™ changes to, button 5 is still assigned to control number 9 each time
the MIDI Mate™ changes presets. The last stored status of each assigned
button is also sent on the corresponding controller MIDI channel.
The MIDI Mate™ is shipped from the factory with all the button
control numbers set to "OFF". The pedal control number is set to "OFF" for
each preset on the MIDI Mate™. If a button's control status for a particular
preset should be "ON", then that status must be stored "ON" for that preset,
and for every preset the control is desired "ON".
