Evolution Technologies MK-416C User Manual

2 

 

In the MK-425C/449C/461C Advanced Guide we have made the assumption  that you 
have been through the Getting Started Guide which should have been supplied in 
printed form with your keyboard. If you do not have this guide, please contact your 
local distributor or download it from our website www.evolution.co.uk 
 
The Getting Started Guide should insure that you are now familiar with the basic  
operation of the keyboard so that we now can focus on more in-depth features.  
 
First however, we need to explain some terminology we use throughout the guide. 
 
 

 
Edit Mode describes the short period after a function button has been pressed during 
which the parameters of that function can be altered. The numeric keypad can be 
used to alter a parameter during this time. No data is sent out of the Evolution 
MK-425C/449C/461C when it is in Edit mode except for program and bank changes. 
LCD symbols shown in Edit mode will flash to show you that a particular parameter 
can be edited. If a number is part entered, and a new controller turned, that number 
will become the relevant parameter number for the new controller and the 3 second 
editing period will re-trigger.

Default Mode describes the state of the keyboard, when no function buttons have 
been pressed within the last 3 seconds. In Default mode, the LCD will show the  
controller symbol, and the 2 digit display will show the last selected controller. The 3 
digits display the currently assigned MIDI CC number.
