1. Keyboard: This 49-note keyboard is velocity-sensitive and, in conjunction with the Octave Up/Down
buttons, can control a 10-octave range.
2. Octave Down/Up: Use these buttons to shift the keyboard's range up or down. Press both buttons
simultaneously to reset the octave shift to "zero."
3. Pitch-Bend Wheel: Moving this wheel sends MIDI Pitch Bend information on a selected MIDI channel
and port.
4. Modulation Wheel: Moving this wheel sends continuous controller data—MIDI CC #01 (modulation), by
default.
5. Arp / Edit: Press this button to enable or disable the internal Arpeggiator whose rate is based on the
current Tempo and Time Division settings. The Arpeggiator will function on notes being played on the
keyboard only. You can also sync the Arpeggiator to an internal or external MIDI Clock source. Press
Shift and this button to configure the Arpeggiator's settings.
6. Latch: Press this button to activate or deactivate the Arpeggiator's Latch feature. When the Arpeggiator
is on and Latch is enabled, you can press a combination of keys on the keyboard and the Arpeggiator
continue to arpeggiate these notes even after you release the keys. Pressing a new combination of keys
will start a new arpeggiation.
Tip: While holding down a combination of keys on the keyboard, add more notes to that arpeggiated
chord by pressing additional keys.
7. Encoders: Use these 360º knobs to send MIDI CC or Increment/Decrement messages to your software
or external MIDI device.
8. Switches: Use these switches to send MIDI CC, Program Change, or Program Bank messages to your
software or external MIDI device. They can function as momentary or toggle (latching) switches. If Time
Division is activated, these switches select the time division of the Arpeggiator and Roll features.
9. Pads: Use these pads to send MIDI Note messages to your software or external MIDI sound module.
The pads are pressure- and velocity-sensitive, which makes them very responsive and intuitive to play
when triggering drum hits or other samples.
10. Pad Bank: Use these buttons to select Pad Bank A, B, C, or D. Between these 4 banks with 8 pads per
bank, you can access up to 32 MIDI events.
