Editing Knobs and Sliders
The knobs and sliders on the MPD24 are controllers which can be set to transmit Control
Change or Aftertouch information. The default operation of knobs and sliders is to transmit
Control Change information when used.
What is Control Change?
Control Change refers to the use of MIDI Continuous Controller
data. Continuous Controller (CC) data are MIDI messages capable
of transmitting a range of values, usually 0-127. CC's are commonly
used for controlling volume, pan, mod wheel (#1) and other variable
parameters on your DAW or sound module.
What is Aftertouch?
Aftertouch refers to MIDI data sent when pressure is applied to a
pad after it has been struck, and while it is being held down or
sustained. Aftertouch is often routed to control vibrato, volume, and
other parameters. On the MPD24, the knobs and sliders can also be
assigned to transmit Aftertouch information.
