SENDING MESSAGES

In addition to global parameters, there are four special functions available on the

Trigger IO: the All Notes Off message, the Return to Default Value message, and the

Factory Reset message, as well as MIDI SysEx messages. You might rarely have to

use these, but it is good to keep in mind that they are available in case you run into

trouble.

ALL NOTES OFF

This function sends an All Notes Off message on all MIDI channels. An All Notes Off

message will terminate any MIDI note that is still playing. This message can be used

to recover from erroneous stuck notes.

• To send an All Notes Off message, press function up and function down buttons

simultaneously.

RETURN TO DEFAULT VALUE

This message will set the parameter being edited back to its original value.

• To send a Return to Default Value message, press the function down and value

down buttons simultaneously.

FACTORY RESET

This operation resets all functions back to the factory setup condition. Sometimes

you might have gone a little too far changing the configuration of the Trigger IO. In

this case, you might want to use the Factory Reset message to restore everything,

including presets, back to the way it originally was.

• To send a Factory Reset message, hold down the value up and value down buttons

simultaneously while powering on the Trigger IO. You will see “rES” displayed on the

screen to let you know that the Trigger IO has been reset.

MIDI SYSEX TRANSFERS

MIDI System Exclusive (SysEx) messages allow you to transfer parameter and

program data to and from the Trigger IO over the USB or MIDI connection. Using

SysEx software editors, many of which are available free over the Internet (SendSX,

MIDI-OX, SysEx Librarian), you can quickly dump and transfer preset information to

and from the Trigger IO.

• To request a Data Dump from the Trigger IO, please make sure that the Trigger IO is

connected via MIDI or USB to your SysEx application. Then press function up and

value up simultaneously. This will transfer all the presets from the Trigger IO to your

SysEx application.

• To transfer data to the Trigger IO, please make sure that the Trigger IO is connected

via USB to your SysEx application. Then, simply play the SysEx data you would like

to transfer to the Trigger IO.
