ASSIGN A PAD TO START/STOP MMC
One feature that often comes in handy with a
controller keyboard is the ability to start and
stop a song without having to use the computer
keyboard or mouse. It's really easy to set up the
COMMANDKEY25 pads to do that.
For example, you could use Pad 7 to send Stop
commands and Pad 8 to send Start commands. This
is accomplished through the use of MIDI Machine
Control (MMC) commands.
1. Select the Pad Mode
To achieve this, begin by selecting Pad 7 by
clicking on its graphic in the MIDI Control Centre
or by tapping Pad 7 on the COMMANDKEY25.
Then click the Mode field to activate the pull-
down menu:
2. Set the MMC Message number
Once the Mode has been set to MMC, set both
the LSB and MSB to the same number so the
pad knows which command to send. MMC Stop
command needs the CC number set to 1, as
below:
Next, select Pad 8 so we can set it to the MMC
command for "Start". This means the CC number
must be set to 2:
Now you should have Pad 8 set to start your
song. Of course, you can assign those functions
to any pad you like, now that you know how to
do it.
