E ALL INIT button
Resets all MIDI messages assigned to the faders/[TRACK
SEL] keys to the initial settings. To initialize, move the
cursor to this button and press the [ENTER] key.
F FADER button
If you turn this button on, the MIDI message assigned to
the fader of the currently selected channel will be dis-
played.
This button will automatically be turned on when you
operate the fader of a track channel.
G SEL SW button
If you turn this button on, the MIDI message assigned to
the [TRACK SEL] key of the currently selected channel
will be displayed.
This button will automatically be turned on when you
operate the [TRACK SEL] key of a track channel.
H LATCH/UNLATCH button
Selects how the [TRACK SEL] key of a track channel will
operate when pressed.
• LATCH ............The setting will alternate on/off each
time you press the [TRACK SEL] key.
• UNLATCH .......The setting will be on while you hold
down the [TRACK SEL] key, and will
turn off when you release the key.
I LEARN button
When this button is on, the MIDI message received from
the MIDI IN connector will be assigned to the currently
selected fader or [TRACK SEL] key. This is a convenient
way to assign MIDI messages quickly.
J MIDI message
This area displays (in hexadecimal form) the MIDI mes-
sage that is assigned to the currently selected fader or
[TRACK SEL] key.
You can move the cursor to each numeric box and turn the
[DATA/JOG] dial to edit the value of each byte (two-digi-
tal hexadecimal number). You can select the following val-
ues.
• 00–FF (hexadecimal)
..............Corresponds to the actual value of the
MIDI message that is transmitted.
• END.............Indicates the end of the MIDI message.
When you operate a fader or [TRACK
SEL] key, the MIDI message starting with
the first byte and ending with the byte that
precedes END will be transmitted.
• SW ([TRACK SEL] key only)
..............Indicates the on/off status of the [TRACK
SEL] key. The byte you specify as SW will
be transmitted as 7F (hexadecimal) when
the key is turned on, or 00 (hexadecimal)
when the key is turned off.
• FAD .............Indicates the current position of the fader.
If the message is assigned to a fader, the
byte you specify as FAD will be transmit-
ted as a value of 00–7F (hexadecimal)
corresponding to the fader position when
you operate the fader.
If the message is assigned to a [TRACK
SEL] key, this byte will be transmitted as a
value corresponding to the current posi-
tion of the fader when the [TRACK SEL]
key is turned on, and will be transmitted as
a value of 00 (hexadecimal) when the
[TRACK SEL] key is turned off.

• If two or more MIDI messages are received while the LEARN but-
ton is on, the last-received MIDI message will be input in the MIDI
message field.
• If a system exclusive message longer than sixteen bytes is
received, the first sixteen bytes will be displayed.
HINT
• The MIDI message assigned to a single fader or key cannot be
longer than sixteen bytes.
• If a SW byte is not assigned to a [TRACK SEL] key, the MIDI mes-
sage you input will be transmitted only when you turn the key on.
(In this case you will normally use the UNLATCH setting.)
• When you use the LEARN button to assign a control change to a
fader, the END byte will automatically be input at the end of the
MIDI message.
• When you use the LEARN button to assign a control change to a
fader, the FAD byte will be automatically input as the variable
value.
HINT
• If you assign a MIDI message manually, be sure to input END at
the end of the MIDI message.
• When you assign a MIDI message to a fader, FAD must be input
for one of the bytes. If FAD is not input, operating the fader will not
do anything.
• If you input the values manually, it is possible that an invalid MIDI
message will be input. For this reason, you should use the 9
LEARN button to assign MIDI messages whenever possible.
