Using push-knobs 1–8 and the touch pad as MIDI controllers
You can use push-knobs 1–8 and the touch pad (LCD display) as MIDI
controllers. Assignments for these controllers can be stored in the BANK 1–
4 buttons, and recalled simply by pressing a button.
1. Press the BANK 1 button to access the MIDI control
bank page. The BANK 1 button will light.
2. When you turn a push-knob 1–8, the MIDI message as-
signed to the respective encoder operation will be trans-
mitted.
3. When you push a push-knob 1–8, the MIDI message as-
signed to the respective switch operation will be trans-
mitted.
4. When you touch the LCD display (touch pad), the MIDI
messages assigned to touch, X-axis, and Y-axis opera-
tions will be transmitted.
5. You can use System Setup or the ZERO Edit application
to change these MIDI messages.
6. In the same way as for BANK 1, you can access the
BANK 2 – 4 pages and transmit the MIDI messages that
are assigned to the controllers in those banks.
