🎚 MIDI Modify

MIDI Modify

Split the keyboard into two zones:

Ideal for controlling two synths with one keyboard.

The split point and both output channels are fully configurable.
The switch between MIDI Change and MIDI Split is made by pressing the select button when selecting a MIDI Change or MIDI Split item
The OUTs are fully configurable between OUT 1, OUT 2, OUT 1 & 2 & Split.

🎛 Velocity Mode

  • Velocity Change

  ''(Range: -50 to +50)''  
  Preserves dynamic expression.

All incoming notes are set to a fixed velocity.

  Useful for consistent volume or triggering.
