• From the MIDI Setup screen, S1 will Enable MIDI while S2 will disable MIDI.

• Encoder A will configure the Channel (0 - 15) and Encoder D will configure the Note (0 - 127).

Note: There are different types of MIDI messages. The only one that the 250ML supports is Channel Voice. The

Channel setting allows the console to listen to any channel from 0 to 15. The Note variable allows the console to
