Evolution MK-425C/449C/461C Advanced User Guide
As already described, the standard MIDI controller numbers range from 0 to 131. We
have extended the list of MIDI cc’s that can be assigned to the controllers of the
keyboard to include RPN/NRPN, MMC and General MIDI 1&2 SysEx messages.
These advanced messages are as easy to program as a regular MIDI cc instruction by
entering values 132 to 152 when programming MIDI cc’s. The charts on page 8 and 9
(or Appendix B) show you what number correspond to each message
To program the values required for these advanced messages, the
MK-425C/449C/461C requires you to press the PROGRAM, DATA LSB and DATA
MSB buttons twice respectively. Pressing only once will send the program and bank
change instructions “on the fly” as described in the Getting Started guide.
Lets look at a couple of examples to see how this works. Please refer to the charts on
pages 4 & 5 so you get to grips with the principle:
1. Select the button you want to control the MMC message.
2. Press “CONTROL ASSIGN” on the MK-425C/449C/461C.
3. Type in “149” using the numerical keypad.
This is the number that correspond to the MMC instruction, as per the chart on
page 4 and 5.
4. Press “CHANNEL” once.
5. Type in “127”, using the numerical keypad.
This ensures that the message is set to all device ID numbers. For more
information about this, please read “About SysEx Messages & Device ID”
on page 9.
4. Press the “DATA LSB” button twice.
5. Enter a number from the chart on the next page to select the MMC
message you want:
