padKONTROL Owner’s Manual
About the illumination mode
This mode causes the trigger pad LEDs to blink in a unique
pattern. This produces a particularly striking effect when
used during a live performance on a dimly lit stage; it looks
cool sitting in the studio, too.
To select a pattern:
● Pattern A Power-on while holding down the [SETTING/
ENTER] and [MESSAGE/EXIT] keys.
Pattern A produces an “expanding box” type of
pattern each time a trigger pad is struck.
● Pattern B Power-on while holding down the [SETTING/
ENTER] and [FIXED VELOCITY/PRELOAD]
keys.
Pattern B produces a “domino effect” type of
pattern each time a trigger pad is struck.
● Pattern C Power-on while holding the [SETTING/ENTER]
and [PROG CHANGE/WRITE/ALL PAD] keys.
If the padKONTROL has not been touched for
few minutes, the trigger pads will start to blink
in a variety of generated patterns. Once you
touch the padKONTROL, they will stop.
● Mode Off Power-on while holding down the [SETTING/
ENTER] key and [SCENE] key.
The illumination mode setting is retained even when the power is
off, providing you power-on in the usual way. You do not need to
reset this parameter each time you turn on the padKONTROL.
