Tab. 4.2: Assignment of the push encoders in EDIT mode (CONTINUOUS types)
Table explanation:
All settings in the EDIT mode are made by turning the push encoders.
Pressing the push encoder displays its current value. In addition, the setting
options depend on whether the selected control element is a SWITCH type or
CONTINUOUS type.
In the EDIT mode, Push Encoder 1 selects (by turning) the type of command
assigned to a control element.
With Push Encoder 2, select a MIDI channel through which that control
element’s data is sent.
Push Encoders 3 - 5 set parameters and values for the selected MIDI type.
They vary depending on the MIDI function. More details about this subject can be
found later in this chapter.
Push Encoder 6 (Controller Mode) selects how the previously selected control
element behaves, depending on whether it is a SWITCH or a CONTINUOUS type
CONTINUOUS-type elements:
CONTINUOUS-type element controls are divided into “Absolute,” “Absolute
(14 bit),” “Relative 1” (2nd complement), “Relative 2” (binary offset), “Relative 3”
(MSB, most significant bit), “Relative 1 (14 bit),” “Relative 2 (14 bit),” “Relative 3
(14 bit)” and “Increment/Decrement.” Absolute means absolute data values
although jumps may occur when changing values. With Relative, the current
parameter value is continued independently from the position of the control.
Absolute (14-Bit) or one of the Relative (14-Bit) modes are standard modes
for value changes at NRPNs with high resolution. This is necessary with some
software mixers if more than 128 steps are needed. Increment / Decrement
serves as a step-by-step increase or decrease of values by using the Data
Increment / Decrement commands (see list 5.1 in the appendix).
◊ The classic controler mode for most applications is “absolute”.
All other modes have to be supported by the MIDI software or the
device to be controlled.
Using Push Encoder 7, you can adjust how control elements display information.
Depending on whether you are dealing with an encoder, push encoder, fader or
foot pedal, there are different options available:
LED display of the push encoders:
OFF
The LED circle remains off.
1d (1 digit): Only one LED lights up (standard setting).
1d- The LED circle operates similar to “1d”, but when the value is 0,
no LED lights up.
2d The display of the LED circles occurs in two stages. If you slowly turn the
encoder from left to right, at first only one LED lights up, and then the
next LED lights up while the previous LED goes out, and so on. This way,
even the slightest value changes can be accurately represented.
2d- Just like “2d”, but when the value is 0, no LED lights up.
Bar Bar display: when the value is changed, all LEDs light up successively
(for volume etc.).
Bar- Just like bar display, but when the value is 0, no LED lights up.
Sprd Spread: When the value is 0, the upper middle LED lights up; when the
value is increased, the LED circle gradually lights up in both directions
(left and right).
Pan In the middle position (value = 64), only the upper middle LED is on.
With lower values, the LED circle lights up toward the left; with higher
values, the LED circle lights up toward the right (panorama adjustment).
