MIDI PORT/CHANNEL FIELD
INCREMENT/DECREMENT PARAMETERS (knobs only)
The endless knobs on the MPD26 may also be used as an increment/decrement NRPN function. This allows
you to use the knob to increment and decrement through parameters as opposed to sending an absolute
value. Please note that the implementation of NRPN functions depends strictly on the software with which
you will be using the MPD26. Consult your software’s documentation to find out how NRPN functions are
supported.
MIDI CHANNEL FIELD
This field sets the MIDI Port and Channel which the knob will use to
transmit messages. You can assign the knobs to one of two MIDI Ports, A
or B, and to one of 16 MIDI Channels on each port (i.e. A14). You can
also assign knobs to use the MIDI Common Channel.
