Making system settings
Setting/registering user mode settings
You can assign different MIDI events of your choice to the buttons and knobs of the
SI-24, and register these settings to [4] (USR 1) or [5] (USR 2). The settings you
register will be remembered even when the power is turned off.
Assigning MIDI events to buttons and faders (Send)
As an example, here’s how to make user mode settings for [4] (USR 1).
1. Hold down [SYSTEM] and press [4] (USR 1) to select the location for which you
want to register settings.
[SYSTEM] and [4] (USR 1) will light, and user mode 1 will be selected.
2. Press [9] (KEY).
[9] (KEY) are turned on (lit), and you will enter key/fader setting mode.
3. Operate the key (button, PAN knob, fader, or the jog dial) for which you want to
assign a MIDI event.
The key you moved last will be the key your MIDI parameter will be assigned to.
4. Input the MIDI event that you want to send when keys or faders are operated
from R-BUS or from MIDI IN.
[4] (USR 1) will change from lit to blinking, indicating that the setting has been
changed.
* Whether you input the MIDI event from R-BUS or from MIDI IN will depend on the MIDI
control mode setting. For details, refer to “Using the MIDI connectors to transmit/receive control
data—MIDI Control Mode” (p. 29).
5. Input the MIDI event that you want to send when you leave your fingers from
buttons via R-BUS or MIDI IN.
* In case you do not want to send MIDI event when you leave your fingers from buttons, this step
is not necessary.
6. Press [9](KEY) again.
[9] (KEY) turns off and returns to user mode 1. Press the key specified on above step
3 to check the assignment.
If you want to correct, return to above step 2.
7. Repeat steps 2–6 as necessary to make assignments for other keys.
8. To finalize the user settings, press [4] (USR 1).
[4] (USR 1) will change from blinking to lit, indicating that the settings have been
finalized. At the same time, [9] (KEY) will turn off (go dark).
If you press [MARKER], [SHORTCUT], or [SCREEN SET] instead of [4] (USR 1),
the settings will not be registered. [9] (KEY) will turn off (go dark), and you will
return to the state the SI-24 was in before you made the settings.
User mode settings can also be
saved on your computer or
another device. For details,
refer to “Saving user mode
settings on your computer—
Dump” (p. 28). To load the
user mode settings you saved,
refer to “Loading user mode
settings from your computer—
Load” (p. 28).
