Alternatively, you can use the “+” and “-” buttons to change the value.

< 

Press the ENTER key (C5).

< 

Move the Volume Slider upwards to increase the value of the effect.

If you have made an error while entering the numerical data value, you can press the “CANCEL” key (C1) to exit Edit Mode without changing 
the effect assigned to the Volume Slider.

Note that each time the keyboard is turned off, the data assigned to the Volume Slider will be lost. Each time the keyboard is powered up, the 
Volume Slider will be assigned to volume (effect number 07) by default.

It is possible to alter the sensitivity of the Pitch Bend Wheel by assigning effect number 128 to the Modulation Wheel or Volume Slider. This will 
allow you to alter the pitch bend range up to one octave up and down.

The Keystation keyboards have been designed to make working with MIDI on your computer as simple as possible. Nonetheless, you may 
still experience some difficulties. In many cases, the keyboard is not at fault; the problem lies with the receiving device. To counter this, there 
are two useful MIDI functions:

If you find there are hanging notes that you cannot stop playing, send an “All Notes Off” MIDI message by performing the following:

< 

Press the Advanced Functions button to engage Edit Mode.

< 

Press the black key above D3 (named D# 3), representing “ALL NOTES OFF.”

< 

Edit Mode will disengage, eliminating any hanging notes.

If you find there is an effect on a voice that you do not want, rather than having to isolate and identify that effect, you can send a “Reset All 
Controllers” MIDI message by performing the following:

< 

Press the Advanced Functions button to engage Edit Mode.

< 

Press the black key above C3 (named C# 3), representing “RESET ALL CONTROLLERS.” 

< 

Edit Mode will disengage, eliminating all effects.

The MIDI Out port is located on the back of the keyboard, and can be used to connect the keyboard to an external sound module or MIDI 
keyboard. By default (when you switch the unit on), all controller data is sent out via the MIDI output as well as the USB out.

If you want the MIDI output to act like a traditional USB-to-MIDI interface, engage “MIDI Out from USB” mode by carrying out the following:

< 

Press the Advanced Functions button to engage Edit Mode.

< 

Press the black key above D2 (named D# 2), representing “MIDI OUT FROM USB.”

< 

Edit Mode will disengage.

< 

The keyboard is now able to send data received from the computer via its MIDI OUT jack to whatever device is connected.

In order to use the MIDI output, select the Keystation USB MIDI Out as the MIDI output device in your sequencer.
