Banks Configuration

The Banks Configuration panel allows you to customize how each bank behaves, including its shifter settings, color feedback, and MIDI channel.

Banks configuration panel

This is the bank ID - a unique identifier for each bank.

To activate more than one bank, you need to configure a component to behave as a bank selector.

  1. Use the capture tool inside the “Button” drop-down
  2. Make sure the Auto-select feature is enabled in the settings
  3. Select Capture in the bank shifter’s list
  4. Push the button or encoder switch you want to link it to

You can also use the hardware ID number to set it manually. Find the hardware ID number on the top left corner of your cards.

You can set the bank shifter to be Toggle or Momentary:

ModeBehavior
MomentaryBank only remains active as long as the button is held down
ToggleBank stays active until the button is pressed again

Set the color feedback for everything that has feedback LEDs in this bank.

Set the MIDI channel for this entire bank.

You can recall banks remotely using Program Change messages. This is useful for:

  • Recalling a specific bank at a specific time during your performance
  • Controlling bank switches on multiple controllers simultaneously

Send these Program Change messages on the MIDI channel configured for Remote Banks in your Preferences.

If you have two or more controllers, you can control the bank switch on all controllers at the same time with only one button. Simply MIDI chain your controllers together.
