1) Controller X can be any MIDI controller. After pressing the red push button twice to enter SET-UP mode,
operate the required MIDI controller before pressing the C or Db key that will assign it. If you do not  operate a
controller before pressing the C or Db key, then controller X will respond to MIDI controller 16  -  that is General
purpose controller 1 (10 hexadecimal) 0

2) Controller Y can be any MIDI controller. After pressing the red push button twice to enter SET-UP mode,
operate the required MIDI controller before pressing the A or Bb key that will assign it. If you do not  operate a
controller before pressing the A or Bb key, then controller Y will respond to MIDI controller 17  -  that is General
purpose controller 2 (11 hexadecimal)

3) Controller X/Y will take priority over other control messages, so if controller X/Y is the mod wheel, mod wheel
messages will operate whatever controller X/Y is currently assigned to, instead of operating modulation.

4) Transmit/Receive channel and omni-on setting will return you directly to playing  mode,  all other  keys will let you
stay in SET-UP mode until you press the ENTER key (Top C)

5) The ENTER  key  (Top  C) also  resets  all controllers  to  their  default  values - off in most cases - on  for volume -
centre for pitch bender.

6) Control change commands recognised - (numbers in decimal)

121 reset all controllers 

01 modulation wheel

123 all notes off 

07 Main volume

124 omni mode off (always poly) 

64 sustain pedal

125 omni mode on (always poly) 

94 select transpose mode

126 (mono mode) = all notes off 

95 select set-up mode

127 (poly mode) = all notes off
nnn Controller X (user defined where nnn = any controller)
nnn Controller Y (user defined where nnn = any controller)
Controller X default = 16 

Controller Y default = 17

7) Other commands recognised - (numbers in hexadecimal)

8nH notes off 

9nH notes on & velocity

BnH control change (see above) 

CnH program change

DnH channel pressure (aftertouch) 

EnH pitch-bend change

FEH active sensing

MIDI CONTROL OF RED PUSH BUTTON

The red push button can be "pressed"  via MIDI as MIDI switch number 95 (5Fh) for regular program mode or 94
(5Eh) for transpose mode. The selection of the push button is enough, it  doesn’t  matter if it is being  turned  on  or
off.

In hexadecimal BX - 5F - 00 = program mode
In hexadecimal BX - 5E - 00 = transpose mode

Where X is the current MIDI channel.

[N.B. whilst in program/transpose modes the MIDI is in omni on mode]
