When the [FULL LEVEL] button is activated, the MPD24 pads always play back at
maximum velocity (127). This way, no matter how hard or soft you hit a pad, the
MPD24 will always trigger the sound at its maximum velocity (volume).
When you press [16 LEVELS], you can use the 16 pads to change a selected pad’s
velocity in 16 steps. This allows you to have more control over the velocity of the
desired sound. When this button is pressed the last pad that was hit gets mapped to
all 16 pads. The pads output the same note number and pressure controller as the
initial pad, but the velocity is fixed at the values in the diagram below, regardless of
how hard you hit each pad.
PROGRAM CHANGE
Pressing this button allows a program change or program with bank change message
to be transmitted. This allows you to tell a hardware or software module which the
MPD24 is controlling, what sound banks to use.
REW, FF, STOP, PLAY, RECORD
These five buttons are dedicated buttons for sending
MIDI Machine Control commands.
