2.10 The MIDI-function
The MIDI function allows complete remote control of the Licon 1X. If you use a MIDI keyboard or a MIDI
sequencer, the mode of operation always remains the same. Each key of the Licon 1X can be assigned a
MIDI note. It is important, however, that the MIDI section is activated. The current MIDI settings are
shown in the main menu in the REMOTE section.
If REMOTE : MIDI is shown on the display, the
MIDI section is activated.
