MP1288 MIDIWIZARD MIDI CONTROLLER RFX Salt Lake City, UT 5/98 OWNERS MANUAL INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing the MP1288 MIDIWIZARD. The MP1288 was designed to give you control of a whole universe of MIDI-compatible processors, keyboards, sequencers, MIDI-linked PC terminals or anything else than can receive MIDI on any of the 16 standard MIDI channels. The MIDI WIZARDS's compact, durable chassis and low profile make it easily integrated into the sometimes crowded studio or stage environment. And, if you choose not to use it as a foot controller, the Wizard is designed to fit into an extra rack space in any 19 inch audio rack. [. . . ] Example - Your wah/volume pedal comes equipped with an output jack that makes it double as a voltage controller. Your guitar signal processor lets you remotely adjust the Chorus speed, master volume or hi-mid-lo settings. Since the guitar signal processor is set for MIDI channel 2, plug the controller into CONTINUOUS CONTROLLER jack number 1 and assign jack number 1 to MIDI channel 2. This is done by selecting the Program button while the CONTINUOUS CONTROLLER # LED is lit and then selecting MIDI channel 2 - since the receiving unit is set for MIDI channel 2. CLEARING THE MEMORY - FACTORY PRESET The MP1288 can be reset as it came from the factory by simply holding down both CHANNEL buttons while in the LEARN mode. · The display will show [FP] (meaning factory preset) for about 60 seconds then clear. MIDI TEST MODE The 1288 comes with a bonus testing mode for testing other MIDI transmitters. To access the TEST Mode, hold the two PROGRAM buttons down on power-up. Connect the unit to be tested to the MIDI IN jack of the 1288, and send a signal from the test unit. The MIDI WIZARD will display the channel and the program change number (MPC#) coming in from the unit being tested. If a controller is being tested, the display will show the channel number, then the controller number while lighting the CONTROLLER # LED. In this mode, all the buttons on the MP1288 are inactive because the 1288 is only an input testing device. This features makes the MP1288 a very useful tool when troubleshooting any MIDI transmitting device. TO EXIT MIDI TEST MODE YOU MUST UNPLUG THE POWER FROM THE MP1288.
