INCREMENT/DECREMENT PARAMETERS (knobs only) The endless knobs on the MPK61/MPK88 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 MPK61/MPK88. Please consult your software's documentation to find out how NRPN functions are supported. MIDI CHANNEL FIELD MIDI PORT/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 a knob or fader to use the MIDI Common Channel. 1. Use the [] button to select the next field. Note: When not used via USB, only knobs assigned to port A will be transmitted via the 5-pin MIDI port on the back of the MPK61/MPK88. BANK M FIELD Bank M describes the Most Significant Bit (MSB) of information. 1. Use [] buttons to select Bank M field. 2. While in Bank M field, use [VALUE] dial to select desired value. 3. Use the [>] button to select the next field. BANK M FIELD BANK L FIELD Bank L describes the Least Significant Bit (MSB) of information. 1. Use the [] buttons to select Bank L field. 2.
