33MidiChan (MIDI Channel): This option sets the MIDI Channel on which the data will be transmitted. This can be set toa value between 1 and 16, or to ‘KeybCHAN’ or ‘ComnCHAN’. Like the ‘KeybPORT’ and ‘ComnPORT’ options for the Portssetting, ‘KeybCHAN’ and ‘ComnCHAN’ are special options which allow the MIDI Channel setting for the control to followone of two common MIDI Channel settings which can be accessed from the template edit menu (Keyboard Channel andCommon Channel). More information on the Keyboard Channel and Common Channel routing settings can be found in page 24.CC Num (Control Change Number): This allows you to set the Control Change (CC) number for the control to a valuefrom 0 through 127. You can toggle the display format of the CC Num setting between decimal and hexadecimal bypressing the ROW-SELECT button for the upper left-hand row of buttons.Pick-Up: This setting is only available for pots, sliders, the pitch/mod joystick and the expression pedal. Where available,it can be found on the second page of control settings so scroll up to access it. It allows you to set the response of thecontrol to one of the following:ON: After selecting a template, if the current position of a control does not match the value of the control stored with thetemplate, the control will not have any effect when operated until its position matches the value stored with the template.OFF: After selecting a template, if the current position of a control does not match the value of the control stored with thetemplate, the control value will “jump” from the stored value to match the position of the control as soon as the control isoperated.GLOBAL: The control will follow the Pick-Up setting in the Global menu, which can be set to ‘ON’ or ‘OFF’. The advantagepresented by this option is that the response of some or all controls in multiple templates can be changed by editing asingle parameter, rather than editing the individual setting for each control.TEMPLATE: The control will follow the Pick-Up setting in the Template menu, which can be set to ‘ON’ or ‘OFF’. Theadvantage presented by this option is that the response of some or all controls in a template can be changed by editinga single parameter, rather than editing the individual setting for each control.Xy PADAXIS ContRoLThis picture show how the XY pad operates.
