Wheel Assignment
It is possible to assign different MIDI controller numbers to the Modulation wheel. These parameters are called MIDI
continuous controllers (MIDI CC). There are 128 MIDI continuous controllers (0-127, counting from and including zero) plus
an additional 4 proprietary M-Audio controller numbers for a total of 132 assignable parameters (counting from and including
zero to 131). Numbers beyond 127 are a proprietary method M-Audio uses to simplify the transmission of certain, otherwise
more complicated multi-part MIDI messages. A full list of controller values is given at the end of this manual in Appendix
C. For these controller values to have any effect on the sound, the receiving software or device has to be able to read and
respond to these MIDI controller messages.
Some examples of useful MIDI CCs are:
01 Modulation 07 Volume 10 Pan (balance) 05 Portamento Time
To assign a MIDI controller message to the Modulation wheel:
1. Press the Edit Mode button.
2. Press the black key above F5 (F#5), representing “Wheel Assign.”
3. Use the Numerical Data Entry keys G5 – B6 to enter the number of the MIDI controller you want to assign to the
Modulation wheel.
4. Press the Enter key (C7).
If you make an error while entering the numerical data value, you can press the CANCEL key (C3) to exit Edit mode
without changing the MIDI CC assigned to the Modulation wheel.
As an example, let’s assign MIDI CC number 10 to the Modulation wheel. This means the Modulation wheel will
control Pan (or balance):
1. Press the Edit Mode button.
2. Press the black key above F5 (F#5), representing “Wheel Assign.”
3. Press A5 to enter “1.”
4. Press G5 to enter “0” so you have entered “10.”
5. Press C7 for “ENTER.”
To re-assign the Modulation wheel to its default function:
1. Press the Edit Mode button.
2. Press the black key above F5 (F#5), representing “Wheel Assign.”
3. Press the F5 key (Default). When the Default key is pressed, the parameter is reset to its default value, and
Performance mode resumes.
