Using X-Session Pro

M

any DJ and audio applications (such as Ableton Live, Propellerhead Reason, Native Instruments Traktor, and others) now 
include a “MIDI Learn” function.  This feature allows you to quickly assign the buttons, knobs, or sliders of the X-Session 

Pro to control specific parameters within the software.  X-Session Pro can control any software that has this functionality.

The “learn” function varies from application to application and you will need to refer to your software’s user guide to find out how 
to use this feature.

If your software does not have this functionality, it may still be possible to manually assign the program’s features to be controlled 
by the specific MIDI CC data generated by the knobs, buttons, and sliders of the X-Session Pro.  Refer to your software’s user guide 
to see if this is possible.  

If manually assigning features is possible in your software, see Appendix A for a complete listing of MIDI CC information generated 
by the knobs, buttons, and sliders of the X-Session Pro. 

Pressing the Reset or A buttons 

may place the controller in a 

mode in which functionality 

is limited.  Do not press 

the Reset or A buttons 

unless instructed to do so 

by an authorized technical 

support specialist or support 

document.
