If Midi is selected in the Instrument Section, The Q-Link

Knobs' Program Mode will look slightly different. To control a

desired parameter of an external sound generator by MIDI,

you can define a MIDI CC (MIDI Control Change). This can be

any MIDI Control Change from 1 to 128 for every Q-Link Knob. Make sure that your external MIDI device

is able and set to recognize MIDI control change data.

FX Mode

Click the FX button to activate the Q-Link Knobs' FX Mode. To

assign a parameter to a Q-Link Knob in the software:

1. Click a Q-Link Knob and move the mouse to select it for

assigning. The Qlink field will show the number of the selected knob.

2. Click the Trig drop-down menu and select Min or Max. When you hold down the Q-Link Trigger

button on your MPC hardware and touch the top of one the Q-Link Knobs, the corresponding

parameters will jump to either its minimum (Min) or maximum (Max) value.

3. Click the Effect drop-down menu and select one of the effects, which have previously been loaded.

Note: You have to load an effect before its parameters can be assigned to the Q-Link Knobs. All

effects loaded to the pads can have their parameters assigned. See the Effects chapter for more

information about loading effects.

4. Click the Param (Parameter) drop-down menu and select the parameter you want to assign to the

Q-Link Knob. The available parameters depend on the selected effect.

In the software, click the desired pad to select it. To select a different bank,

use the Bank buttons above the pads to specify a bank from A to H.
