8. [PROGRAM CHANGE] – Pressing this button
will enter Program Change mode. In this mode,
you can send a Program Change or Program
with Bank Change message to a hardware or
software module.
9. TRANSPORT CONTROL BUTTONS – These
five buttons are dedicated buttons for sending
transport control commands. The transport
control buttons can be set to transmit either MMC
(MIDI Machine Control), MMC/MIDI SysEx, MIDI
START/STOP or pre-assigned MIDI CC values.
10. 8 ASSIGNABLE KNOBS –Each 360-degree
knob can be used to send continuous control
data to a desktop audio workstation or external
MIDI device.
11. 8 ASSIGNABLE SLIDERS – Each slider can be
used to send continuous control data to a
desktop audio workstation or external MIDI
device.
12. 8 ASSIGNABLE BUTTONS – These buttons can
be used as MIDI CC switches or Program
Change switches. They can function in
momentary or toggle modes. When [TIME
DIVISION] has been activated, these 8 buttons
are used to set the time division of the
Arpeggiator and Note Repeat features.
13. [CONTROL BANK] – The MPK49 features 3
independent banks of continuous controllers.
Effectively, this allows you to control up to 72
independent parameters with the knobs, sliders
and buttons on the MPK49. The [CONTROL
BANK] button is used to switch among the 3
banks. The LEDs above the button will reflect
the currently selected control bank.
14. 12 MPC PRESSURE AND VELOCITY
SENSITIVE PADS – The pads can be used to
trigger drum hits or samples on your software or
hardware module. The pads are pressure and
velocity sensitive, which makes them very
responsive and intuitive to play.
15. PAD BANK buttons – These 4 buttons switch
among pad banks A, B, C, D. Each bank can
address a unique set of 12 sounds, giving you
access of up to 48 different sounds you
can trigger with the pads. The currently
selected pad bank will be indicated on
the LCD display
16. [FULL LEVEL] – When [FULL LEVEL] is
activated, the pads always play back at a
maximum velocity (127), no matter how hard or
soft you hit them.
17. [12 LEVEL] – When [12 LEVEL] is activated, you
can use the 12 pads to change a selected
sound’s velocity in 12 steps. When you press the
[12 LEVEL] button, the last pad that was hit gets
mapped to all 12 pads. The pads will now output
the same note number and pressure controller as
the initial pad, but the velocity
is fixed at the values shown in
the diagram on the right,
regardless of how hard you hit
them. This allows you to have
more control over the velocity
of a sound.
18. [NOTE REPEAT] – Holding this button while
striking a pad causes the pad to retrigger at a
rate based on the current Tempo and Time
Division settings. The Note Repeat feature can
be synced to an internal or external MIDI Clock
source. [NOTE REPEAT] can function as a
latching or momentary button
19. [TIME DIVISION] – This button is used to specify
the rate of the Note Repeat and Arpeggiator
features. When [TIME DIVISION] is activated,
you can press one of the 8 switches to specify a
time division. [TIME DIVISION] can function as a
momentary or toggle button.
Please note that while [TIME DIVISION] is active,
the 8 assignable buttons will not function as MIDI
CC or Program Change switches until [TIME
DIVISION] has been de-activated.
20. [ARP ON/OFF] – This button enables and
disables the internal Arpeggiator. The
Arpeggiator will only function on notes being
played on the keyboard. The Arpeggiator feature
on the MPK49 works in conjunction with the
Tempo and Time Division settings, which specify
the rate of arpeggiation. Please note that the
Arpeggiator can be synced either to an internal
or external MIDI Clock source (such as a
software DAW or a MIDI device).
21. [LATCH] – This button works in conjunction with
the Arpeggiator. When the Arpeggiator is turned
on and [LATCH] has been enabled, you can hold
down a combination of keys -- the Arpeggiator
will memorize and continue to arpeggiate these
notes, even if you depress the keys. There are a
couple of ways to use the [LATCH] function:
a. While holding down the keys, you can add
more notes to the sequence by pressing
down additional keys.
b. If you depress the keys, release them, and
then press down a new combination of
notes, the Arpeggiator will memorize and
arpeggiate the new notes.
22. [OCTAVE + / -] – These buttons can be used to
shift the keyboard’s range up and down. The
display will indicate which octave you have
shifted to. If both buttons are pressed at the
same time, the octave shift will reset to 0.
23. [TAP TEMPO] – This button allows you to tap in
a new tempo. If the preset is reloaded, the
tempo will revert to the saved tempo value.
(Please note that a preset’s default tempo can be
set in Edit Mode). Tap Tempo does not work
when the MPK49 is set to External sync.
24. PITCH BEND WHEEL – Transmits MIDI Pitch
Bend information on a selected MIDI channel
and port.
25. MODULATION WHEEL – This wheel can be
used to transmit continuous controller data. By
default, the modulation wheel will transmit MIDI
CC #01.
