U-CONTROL UMA25S

1. Introduction

Thank you for showing your confidence in us by purchasing the

UMA25S. The UMA25S is an extremely flexible master keyboard

with a control section that can be used for a wide array of

applications. Whether you need independent control of computer

rack synthesizers, General MIDI sound modules and effects

devices, or want to use the UMA25S for conveniently operating

sequencing software or computer plug-ins—the UMA25S offers

you tremendous ease of use and allows you to realize your

ideas intuitively.

ꢀ

The following user manual is intended to familiarize

you with the unit’s control elements, so that you

can master all the functions. After having thoroughly

read the user manual, store it at a safe place for

future reference.

* included

1.1 Before you get started

1.1.1 Shipment

Fig. 1.1: Power supply via USB

The UMA25S was carefully packed at the factory to ensure

safe transport. Nevertheless, if the box is damaged, inspect the

unit immediately for signs of damage.

ꢀ

If the unit is damaged please do NOT return it to us,

but notify your dealer and the shipping company

immediately; otherwise, claims for damage or

replacement may not be granted.

ꢀ

Use the supplied soft bag to avoid damage during

storage and transport.

Make sure that children cannot play unsupervised

with the unit or its packaging.

Please ensure proper disposal of all packing

materials.

1.1.2 Initial operation

Ensure adequate air supply, and to avoid overheating, do not

place your UMA25S on top of a power amplifier or near radiators,

etc.

Fig. 1.2: Battery compartment on the bottom side of the

Please note the following points when inserting the batteries:

The + symbol of the batteries must coincide with the

+ symbol of the compartment! Incorrect polarity will damage

the electronics!

Batteries:

In case it is not possible to establish the power supply with USB

(for example, several USB devices are connected to the host

computer which may result in an overload), you can operate the

UMA25S with three 1.5-Volt batteries (type “AA”, see Fig. 1.2).

Do not use old and new batteries together! When replacing

batteries, always change all 3 batteries at the same time.

Do not use damaged batteries. The UMA25S might also be

damaged because of chemical leakage.

If you do not use the UMA25S for an extended period of

time, please remove the batteries from the compartment.

The batteries could leak and damage the device.

After inserting the batteries, please close the battery compartment

and make sure the release tab snaps into place.

External power supply:

If you neither want to draw the power supply via USB nor power

the device with batteries, there is yet another possibility to connect

the UMA25S to an external power supply unit. Please observe

the correct operational data (DC 9 V; 200 mA) and correct polarity

of the connector. Further information can be found above the DC

input on the rear panel of the device. Reverse polarity may cause

U-CONTROL UMA25S

1.3.2 USB mode (default)

1.3.1 Stand-alone mode

In case the USB connection is not available or detected, the

UMA25S automatically switches to the stand-alone mode. In this

mode, you can use the UMA25S to control external units via the

MIDI output.

This is the default setting when the device is turned on. If the

UMA25S is connected to a computer via USB, the keyboard

automatically switches to this mode. In the USB mode, you can

choose between 2 options: MIDI THRU or MIDI OUT.

1. USB mode with MIDI THRU (default):

MIDI THRU

Fig. 1.4: Stand-alone mode

Fig. 1.5: USB mode with MIDI THRU

In this mode, the keyboard messages are sent to the computer

via USB. The messages from the computer are transmitted to the

UMA25S (data reception) and simultaneously to all MIDI units

which are connected to MIDI OUT. This mode is ideal for playing

the keyboard and controlling further MIDI hardware (samplers,

rack synthesizers, etc.) with the sequencer.

2. Software installation

2.1 Driver installation

With Windows XP/Vista and Mac OS X operating systems, the

UMA25S is detected as soon as you connect a USB cable to

your computer. After detection, you can kick off right away.

Thanks to the implementation of Core Audio in Mac OS X, it is

possible to process your audio with extremely low latency.

2.1.1 Windows XP MIDI driver

Optionally, you can install the BEHRINGER MIDI driver found on

the supplied CD. The advantage of this driver is its multi-client

support, which lets you simultaneously use several MIDI programs

together with the UMA25S. Another advantage is that the model

name is displayed in the selection dialog box of the MIDI driver.

Information on installing the driver is found on the CD in the

ReadMe file of the according folder.

ꢀ

Find more software and driver updates at

www.behringer.com.

2.1.2 Windows XP/Vista audio driver

Optionally,you can also install the BEHRINGER USB ASIO driver,

which is included on the CD as well. Use this driver in case you

want to work with the least possible latency of audio signals.

Most professional music applications, such as Ableton Live and

energyXT2 Compact, use ASIO drivers.

Information on installing the driver is found on the CD in the

ReadMe file of the according folder.

Fig. 1.6: USB mode with MIDI OUT

2.2 Music software

In this mode, the keyboard messages are transmitted via USB to

the computer and simultaneously to MIDI OUT. The messages

from the computer are only picked up by the UMA25S and not

passed on to MIDI OUT.

The UMA25S comes with a comprehensive software bundle

that covers virtually all aspects of music production and live

performance plus lets you produce your own audio podcasts.

This mode is ideal for recording your keyboard performance to

your computer even when your sequencer or virtual instrument

produces high latencies. To avoid this problem, use a rack

synthesizer while recording but the virtual instrument during

playback. The MIDI messages are sent to the computer and, at

the same time, to the MIDI output.

2.2.1 Music production

energyXT2 Compact (on separate CD) gives you a fully

professional Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) for Mac OS X und

Windows XP/Vista operating systems, ideal for sophisticated

and creative audio and MIDI productions as well as live

performances. The included application Audacity is simply the

universal audio editor for Mac and PC. What’s more, you can find

so-called hosts, or “hosting” applications, on the CD which

allow you to load plug-ins (instruments and effects) and use

these for live performances.

Selecting the USB mode:

Press the EDIT/EXIT push button.

Press the key on the keyboard labeled MIDI OUT or MIDI

THRU.

Press ENTER to confirm or EDIT/EXIT to cancel.

2.2.2 Instruments and effects

Many instruments and effects (more than 150 arranged in

categories) are found in the „Win“ and „Mac“ folders that can be

used in the applications described in 2.2.1. The scope ranges

from virtual analog synthesizers, electric organ emulations,

pianos, drum machines to high-quality studio effects such as

reverb, chorus, compressor, delay and many more. But we’ve

also added several exotic ingredients to spice up your sound.

For example, there’s the lo-fi effect, the Tube Amp Simulator, the

Chinese Flute and the Singing Monk.

The selected USB mode is now active and the keyboard

automatically switches back to Play Mode.

2.2.3 Podcasting software

As a special bonus, we’ve thrown in the proven and popular

podcasting software bundle, giving you the tools you need to

make your own podcasts—from the first spark of an idea to

uploading your final podcast. As for the supplied headset, you

can use it to capture spontaneous ideas or comment on your

own music. For details, refer to the included podcast quick-start

guide.

3. Controls and connections

Fig. 3.1: Top view of the UMA25S

The keyboard of the UMA25S has 25 velocity-sensitive,

full-size keys with half action.

ꢀ

The PITCH BEND wheel, the modulation wheel and

the VOLUME slider are not restricted to their

preconfigured functions, but can also have other

control functions assigned to them.

The OCT </> push buttons allow you to shift the keyboard

range up to 4 octaves up or down. These push buttons are

also used for transposition (see Chapter 5.2.2).

The push buttons E1 – E8 can have any MIDI functions

assigned to them. By pressing the MMC push button

once, these push buttons use the preconfigured transport

control functions (see Chapter 5.5.7).

Press the MMC push button to use the default MMC (MIDI

Machine Control) functions of the control elements E1 to

E8. The MMC functions are printed on these control

elements.

The 8 high-resolution rotary knobs E9 – E16 generate

Continuous Controller messages. In Edit Mode, the rotary

knobs can be assigned to any controller number.

Press the MUTE push button to suppress sending MIDI

messages. This allows you to move control elements

without changing the parameter values.

Press the PRESET push button to load a preset.

Press the EDIT/EXIT push button once to switch to Edit

Mode. By pressing the button a second time, you exit Edit

Mode without having accepted any changes.

The –/+ push buttons let you select a preset. Press both

buttons at the same time to silence stuck MIDI notes (PANIC).

Fig. 3.2: Audio connectors on the rear panel

The 3-digit LED display briefly indicates the current

firmware version when the keyboard is switched on, after

which the selected preset number is displayed. In Play

Mode, the display shows the value changes in real time

when operating the control elements. In Edit Mode, the

display shows the MIDI commands, program and channel

numbers as well as parameter values.

If the Direct Monitor function is turned on (press switch

), the MIX control allows you to adjust the volume level

balance between the recording signal and the playback

signal.

The MONITOR ON/OFF switch activates the Direct

Monitor function. The recording signal found at the MIC or

LINE input is fed to the output connectors LINE OUT and

PHONES in order to avoid latency and the resulting timing

problems while recording.

The PITCH BEND wheel (E17) lets you change the pitch in

real time. This way a tone can be bent several semitones

up or down while playing. The desired pitch interval is

adjusted on the controlled device. The PITCH BEND wheel

returns to the center position as soon as you let go of it.

The LEVEL control lets you adjust the volume level of the

headphone signal. Turn the control completely to the left

before plugging in the headphones to avoid damage due to

high volume levels.

The MOD WHEEL (E18) works like a typical modulation

wheel (MIDI CC 1). When you let go of the modulation wheel,

it keeps the set value.

Plug the green headphone connector of the supplied headset

into the PHONES connector.

The VOLUME slider (E19) controls the volume (MIDI

Controller 07).

Plug the red connector of the headset or any dynamic

microphone into the MIC IN connector.

The LEVEL control adjusts the input volume of the

microphone signal. Make sure the input signal does not clip

(distortion).

4. UMA25S as audio interface

ꢀ

To prevent unwanted noise, always be sure that

the input volume level is turned down to MIN when

a microphone is not being used.

The LINE OUT connector lets you connect RCA audio

cables.

The LINE IN connector lets you connect RCA audio cables.

Fig. 3.3: Rear panel connectors

MIDI OUT allows the UMA25S to connect to a computer.

On the other hand, it provides a connection to additional

MIDI devices, making the UMA25S a full-fledged MIDI

interface for the host computer next to its master keyboard

functionality.

The EXPRESSION connector lets you hook up a foot pedal

which can be used to control assignable MIDI data. The

foot pedal typically controls the volume level, which is then

referred to as expression pedal, but can also be used to

control a filter’s cutoff frequency or even a typical wah

effect.

* included

Fig. 4.1: Using the audio connectors

The SUSTAIN connector allows you to connect a Sustain

pedal. This connector is assigned by default to the MIDI

parameter “Damper Pedal” (Sustain, CC 64), which

represents a switch controller. When the pedal is pressed

(and held) while in normal Play Mode, it generates a controller

with the value 127. As soon as the pedal is released, the

controller jumps to the value 0 (which is the typical behavior

of a piano’s sustain pedal). Aside from this, you can assign

the pedal connector to any MIDI controller as is the case

with the push buttons.

The UMA25S provides a professional recording interface

between mixer and computer when used alongside a suitable

mixer. This type of setup allows you to record several signals

onto the computer and to play several recorded takes or playbacks

simultaneously.Additionally, it lets you listen to the entire recording

on loudspeakers (or headphones). Figure 4.1 shows a possible

setup with the UMA25S.

Connect the subgroup outputs with the inputs of the UMA25S. It

is possible to connect either the TAPE INPUT connectors or your

monitor speakers to the outputs of the interface. For monitoring

purposes, plug the stereo headphones into the PHONES output

on the UMA25S or into the headphone output on the mixer. Use

the supplied USB cable to connect your computer by way of the

USB port.

This is the USB connector on the UMA25S. The connector

(type B) on the device is connected to a free port (type A)

on the host computer using the supplied cable. It is

compatible with both USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 standards.

Use the DC IN connector to supply the UMA25S with power

from an external power adapter (not included).

By routing the channels you want to record to the subgroups, it

is now possible to use the mixer’s channels to record one

instrument after the other onto your computer. If you connect the

outputs of the UMA25S to the free channel inputs (not via TAPE

INPUT), make sure that the signal is not switched to the subgroup

but to the main output of your mixer to avoid feedback. Be also

sure to select the correct monitoring paths in the Control Room

section on the mixing console.

The POWER switch is used to turn the UMA25S on and

off. Be sure the POWER switch is turned to the “Off”

position when connecting to the mains.

ꢀ

Please close all software applications before

turning off the UMA25S or disconnecting the USB

cable while the computer is on.

If you feed the UMA25S back through a channel input (not TAPE

INPUT), you can set up an additional monitor mix for performing

musicians by using the Aux Send (for example, Aux 1) of the

specific channel. In case the musicians want to hear themselves

as well as the playback or previous recording takes, use the

Aux Sends in the recording channels to mix the recording signals

with the monitor mix.

STORE key and then the ENTER key (skip step 3).

You can cancel the storing process by pressing the EXIT

push button.

Control elements:

It is possible to use more than one button, knob, slider, etc., at the

same time and that their data are simultaneously sent via MIDI.

We intentionally did not include an auto-store function. This way

you can assign a different MIDI message to a control element

without changing the current preset. If you want to restore a

preset, simply load another preset and then return to the old

preset. All data have now been restored, including the default

function of the control element that had been changed for the

time being.

In principle, there are two options for assigning control elements:

You are using one of the presets with the default controller

configuration (see Table 7.3). In this case, you need to

specify the assignments on the receiving device.

You are you using your own controller configuration that

to help you get started as quick as possible.

or:

What exactly does the UMA25S do?

Simply put, it’s a remote control for all kinds of MIDI equipment.

An entire array of control messages can be generated by the

keyboard, slider, rotary knobs and push buttons as well as the

foot pedals. These control elements allow you to control various

functions of external devices (hardware and software) in real

time. That’s particularly the case with software mixers, sound

generators and effects. The software applications are often

copies of “real” gear—their functionality simulated and displayed

on the computer.

U-CONTROL UMA25S

Below are a couple of suggestions on how you can use your

UMA25S:

5.2.1 Changing the velocity curve

You can adjust the UMA25S’ sensitivity which has an effect on

the velocity with which the keys are pressed and therefore also

on the volume level.

Playing external sound generators (for example, MIDI

sound modules, rack synthesizers and virtual instruments)

Press the EDIT/EXIT push button.

Editing sound parameters of (virtual) synthesizers, sound

samplers and GM/GS/XG sound generators

Turn the E9 rotary knob completely to the right. “crV” (which

stands for Velocity Curve) appears on the display.

Controlling parameters on effects equipment and software

plug-ins, such as effects processors, compressors and

digital equalizers

Select the desired velocity curve with the E11 rotary knob.

You can select one of the following options:

Remotely controlling software mixers (functions for

volume, panorama, mute, etc.)

FIXED: The velocity curve is switched off (as is the case

with an organ). The keyboard always sends the same

velocity value. This value can be adjusted with the E12

rotary knob.

Remotely controlling transport functions (Play, Fast

Forward, Stop, etc.) on sequencers, hard-disk recorders,

drum machines, etc.

SOFT: The keyboard responds to the finest nuances.

Applying different pressures to the keys can make a big

difference in volume.

Live control of volume and sound parameters of sound

modules on stage

Remotely controlling groove boxes, step sequencers, MIDI

generators and other “live” software

MEDIUM: The velocity curve is linear.

HARD: The velocity curve is non-sensitive. You have to hit

the keys very hard in order to play loud.

Controlling program changes and volume level on sound

generators

4a. Press the ENTER key to confirm.

Suitable for band keyboardists, DJs, sound engineers,

home and project studio owners, theater technicians, etc.

4b. Alternatively, press the EXIT push button to cancel any

changes made.

And how does it work?

These settings need not be saved.

Each control element of the UMA25S can be assigned to particular

MIDI parameters. Assignments are carried out in Edit Mode (see

Chapters 5.3 and 5.4). Whenever one of these control elements

is used, the UMA25S generates the control data assigned to this

control element which are then transferred to external devices

over a data link. For this reason, the VOLUME slider is set by

default to send data that controls the volume level of a channel,

for example.

5.2.2 The Octave and Transpose functions

The OCT </> push buttons can be used to shift the pitch in

octave intervals. This is useful because the UMA25S consists

only of 25 keys, whereas the MIDI specification includes 128

notes. In case you want to play a bass line, it can be useful to

move the keyboard range downward.

The control data generated by the individual control elements are

also referred to as MIDI messages. Generally, MIDI messages

can be divided into three major groups:

Alternatively, the OCT </> push buttons can be used to tranpose

notes in semitones so that you can play a piece in a key that

works for you. In order to do so, you need to adjust the settings

in Edit Mode.

Channel Messages: These messages are used to transmit

channel-specific control information. An example of a

channel message is the Note On message. As soon as a

key is played on the UMA25S’ keyboard, the device generates

a message which holds the information for pitch, channel

number and velocity. This way the receiving sound generator

recognizes which tone has to be played.

ꢀ

When the power is turned on, the Octave function

is active by default.

Octave function:

Use the OCTAVE </> push buttons to shift the keyboard’s playing

range up to 4 octaves.

System Messages: These messages are not channel-

specific, but affect the entire system to which they are

sent. They are divided into three subcategories: System

Exclusive Messages (for operating system backup, updates

and management of memory contents); System Real-Time

Messages (for remote control of other devices, etc.);

System Common Messages (for synchronizing several

devices, etc.).

Press OCT> to play the keyboard an octave higher. The

OCT> LED lights up.

Press OCT< to play the keyboard an octave lower. The

OCT< LED lights up.

Press OCT< and OCT> at the same time to return to the

default octave range.

ꢀ

The status of the Octave function is indicated by

the glowing (1 octave) and flashing (2 and more

octaves) of the respective push button’s LED.

Control Messages: These are also known as Control

Changes or Controllers, abbreviated to “CC”. There are

128 controllers in total, numbered from 0 to 127 (refer to

the table of controllers in the appendix). The controllers

are channel-specific.

When the power is turned on, the default octave

range is restored.

ꢀ

MIDI information consists of control data and

contains no audible audio data! The data trans-

mission takes place over 16 channels.

Activating the Octave function (OCT ASSIGN):

When the Transpose function is active, you activate the Octave

function as follows:

Press the EDIT/EXIT push button. The device switches to

Edit Mode. The EDIT LED lights up.

Press the OCT +/– key to select the Octave function.

Press the ENTER key to confirm. The device switches back

to Play Mode (EDIT LED goes out).

5.2.4 The Panic function

Transpose function:

Use the OCTAVE </> push buttons to transpose upward or

downward in semitone steps.

The Panic function is provided to silence stuck MIDI notes. A MIDI

note can get stuck when the connection between the sending

and the receiving device is interrupted for some reason or other

and the required Note Off message cannot be received. This is

perceived as a stuck note that doesn’t fade out.

Press the OCT > to transpose upward in semitone steps.

Press OCT < to transpose downward in semitone steps.

Press OCT < and OCT > simultaneously to return to the

default key.

So, if you execute the Panic command, an “All Notes Off”, an “All

Sound Off” and a “Sustain Pedal Off” message is sent over all 16

channels. This way all connected sound generators are silenced

on the spot, after which you can continue your work as usual.

ꢀ

The status of the Transpose function is indicated by

the glowing (1 semitone) and flashing (2 and more

semitones) of the respective push button’s LED.

Press both push buttons

(+/–) at the same time to

trigger a Panic command. “Pnc” appears on the display for

a short time.

When the power is turned on, the default key is

restored.

5.2.5 The Mute function

Selecting the Transpose function:

When the Octave function is active, you activate the Transpose

function as follows:

Press the MUTE push button

. Its LED lights up.

The Mute function lets you suppress sending MID messages.

This way you can change the positions of control elements

without affecting the current settings of the receiving device.

However, value changes are shown on the display provided it is

active for the control element being moved.

Press the EDIT/EXIT push button. The device switches to

Edit Mode. The EDIT LED lights up.

Press the TRANSP +/– key to select the Transpose function.

Press the MUTE push button again. Its LED goes out.

Press the ENTER key to confirm. The device switches back

to Play Mode (EDIT LED goes out).

ꢀ

The Mute function does not affect the push buttons

E1 – E8 and the Sustain pedal.

ꢀ

Octave settings, which have possibly been made,

are maintained when switching over to the

Transpose function.

5.3 Assignment of control elements using the

Learn function

5.2.3 The MMC function

The easiest way to assign MIDI functions to individual control

elements is to use the Learn function over remote assignment.

For example, MIDI data sent from a MIDI sequencer to your

U-CONTROL are assigned to a control element in advance.

The control elements E1 to E8 have been preconfigured to control

MIDI Machine Control (MMC) messages, and they are activated

by pressing the MMC push button

Press the MMC push button to activate the MMC function.

Not only CC, NRPN and Note messages can be received with the

Learn function, but almost any type of MIDI data including short

SysEx strings.

The push button LED lights up.

The MMC functions that are assigned to the control elements

by default are as follows:

Press and hold down the EDIT/EXIT push button.

E1 Loop: Activates the playback loop feature of the

controlled music software application.

Operate the control element that is supposed to learn the

MIDI function.

E2 Locate: Jumps to the beginning of the track.

E3 REW: Rewinds.

Release the EDIT/EXIT push button.

Press the LEARN key. “Lrn” appears on the display while

the MIDI device waits for an external MIDI message.

E4 FFW: Fast-forwards.

E5 Stop: Stops playback. By pressing Play (E7) again, the

track is played from the beginning.

Transmit the MIDI message to the UMA25S from the device

you want to control.

E6 Pause: Pauses playback. By pressing Play (E7) again,

the track is played from the current position.

If valid MIDI data are received, the display shows “Gd!”

(good). If invalid, incorrect or too long, “Err” (error) appears

on the display.

E7 Play: Plays back.

E8 Punch In: Records.

7a. Press the ENTER key to confirm.

7b. Alternatively, press the EDIT/EXIT push button to cancel

the changes made.

In case your sequencer does not support receiving MMC

messages, you can probably control the transport section using

note numbers or CC messages. The MMC messages can be

assigned to the 8 push buttons E1 – E8 in such a way that the

assigned functions are maintained independent of preset

specification. These functions are also preserved after the device

is switched off and can be activated at all times by simply

pressing the MMC push button. This means that the push buttons

E1 – E8 can each share two functions: first, the function assigned

within a preset, and second, the assigned function that coincides

with presets as soon as the MMC push button is activated.

The device switches to Play Mode (EDIT LED goes out).

ꢀ

All settings made with this function are stored

temporarily! If you want to store the settings

permanently, save them in a preset (see Chapter

5.1.2).

Assigning the 8 push buttons is described in Chapter 5.4. You

simply have to press the MMC push button (LED lights up) before

activating Edit Mode.

Parameter, Value 1, Value 2:

The rotary knobs E11 to E13 allow you to adjust the parameters

and the corresponding values of the selected MIDI message.

The parameters vary according to the MIDI message (see

Chapter 5.5).

Controller Mode:

5.4 Assignment of control messages

in Edit Mode

The E14 rotary knob is provided to determine the switch

behavior of the selected control element. This option is only

available for switch elements (push buttons).

It is possible to specify settings that are different from the presets.

To do so, you need to determine which control elements on the

UMA25S generate which MIDI messages.

The control push buttons support the controller modes “Toggle

On”, “Toggle Off” and “Increment”. Toggle On is comparable to

a switching function (for example, the light switch of a room).

The “On” value, which is specified with the E12 rotary knob

(value 1), is sent by pressing the push button the first time.

Press the push button a second time to send the “Off” value,

which is specified with the E13 rotary knob (value 2). This setting

is ideal for triggering drumloops from a sampler (press once =

Start, press a second time = Stop).

You need to specify how the incoming controllers are to be

interpreted on the slave unit. At this point, we suggest you refer

to the user manual of the slave unit.

General assignment of control messages in Edit Mode:

Press and hold down the EDIT/EXIT push button. The device

switches to Edit Mode and “Edt” appears on the display.

Toggle Off corresponds to a push button function, which is

comparable to the switch of an electric door opener. The On

value (value 1) is sent by pressing the push button. The Off

value (value 2) is sent by releasing the push button. You should

use this mode when triggering short sound effects and samples

(similar to playing a keyboard).

Use the control element you want to edit. The name of the

control shows up on the display (for example, “E10”).

Release the EDIT/EXIT push button. Its LED lights up.

Use the rotary knobs E9 – E16 to assign the MIDI messages

to the selected control element. The applicable MIDI

messages and their descriptions are found in the tables of

Chapter 5.5.

The Increment option is only available for the messages

Program Change, CC, NRPN and After Touch. This mode allows

a stepwise increment of the controller value each time the push

button is pressed. Use E15 to adjust the step interval.

ꢀ

In case you want to check the current parameter

settings, press the push button (E1 – E8) found

under the rotary knob whose function you want to

examine. As soon as the push button is pressed,

the settings appear on the display for a short time.

Alternatively, use the Show Element function (see

Chapter 5.6.1).

Controller Option:

Select the controller mode “Increment” to determine the step

interval of the push buttons by using the E15 rotary knob. This

means that each time you press one of the push buttons, the

transmitted value is increased by the step interval you specified

in advance. If the step interval is set to “10,” values 0, 10, 20,

30 ... 110, 120, 0, 10, etc. are sent one after another. You can

also enter negative values (for example, -10) to achieve a gradual

decrement. In case you have specified the lowest and highest

transmittable values using the E12 and E13 rotary knobs, all

other values stay within this range. With this function, you can

use your U-CONTROL to operate control push buttons that have

more than two switching states.

5a. Press the ENTER key to confirm. The EDIT LED goes out.

5b. Alternatively, press the EDIT/EXIT push button to cancel

the changes and exit Edit Mode. The EDIT LED goes out.

ꢀ

All settings made with this function are stored

temporarily! If you want to store the settings

permanently, save them in a preset (see Chapter

5.1.2).

Display Value:

Use the E16 rotary knob to determine whether value changes

are to be displayed on screen or not. If you decide to use the

display for this purpose, you can see the current values while

using the control element. The preset number reappears shortly

after letting go of the control element.

The various MIDI functions are described in detail in Chapter 5.5.

Comments on Step 4:

In Edit Mode, all settings are made by turning the knobs E9 – E16.

The available setting options depend on the data types being

used.

5.5 MIDI Messages

Examples of Program Changes:

5.5.1 Program Change and MIDI Bank Select

Example 1:

You want the push buttons E1 – E8 to switch the program

numbers 71 – 78 of your external rack synth. Program

the first push button as follows:

Program Change messages are used to activate the memory

banks of the connected devices. 128 program numbers are

available to activate presets. For devices with more than 128

presets, there is the Bank Select function which allows you to

select a memory bank before sending a Program Change.

1. Press and hold down the EDIT/EXIT push button while

pressing the E1 push button. When E01 appears on the

display, release the EDIT/EXIT push button.

The Bank Select message consists of two parts: an MSB (Most

Significant Bit) part and an LSB (Least Significant Bit) part. The

MSB part defines a range of 128 values and is the more important

part of the Bank Select message for many MIDI devices. The LSB

part defines each one of the 128 MSBs in 128 additional steps.

The numbering for both parts ranges from 0 to 127.

2. Turn E9 completely to the left so that the display shows

“PC” (which stands for Program Change).

3. Use E10 to select the MIDI channel on which your

synth is ready to receive.

4. Turn E11 and E12 completely to the right so that “OFF”

appears on the display.

In total, the Bank Select message offers an enormous range of

128 x 128 = 16,384 different values available for bank numbers.

In theory, this means that you could use external devices with

as many different banks. Considering the fact that each single

bank includes another 128 single programs, you get unbelievable

2,097,152 different possibilities to organize your programs.

5. Select the program number 71 by using E13.

6. Select “Single Preset” by using E14.

7. If the program number is to show on the display when

pressing the push button, select “ON” with E16.

8. Press the ENTER key to confirm. The EDIT LED goes

out.

Use the E11 and E12 rotary knobs to select the banks. If a MIDI

device contains more than 128 presets/programs, a Bank Select

message has to be sent beforehand. Even though this is a

controller command, it has to be sent before the Program Change

(and is therefore adjustable) since it is linked to the preset change.

If the Bank Select message is not needed, simply select “Off”.

Result: Each time you press the push button, the program

number 71 is activated on the slave unit.

Program the push buttons E2 – E8 the same way with

ascending program numbers up to 78.

Example 2:

If you choose a control which is a rotary knob, you can

use the knob to select a program number directly. It is

also possible to assign a permanent program number

(selectable with E13), which is sent when using the

control. For push buttons/switch elements, you can use

the push button to select a permanently assigned

program number (using E13). This is practical when using

the same preset over and over again. Adjust the switch

behavior by using E14: “Increment” means that every time you

press the push button the next incremental preset number—in a

predefined interval—is activated. “Single Preset” means that the

push button always switches to the same preset number.

In case you want to program a push button in order for it

to activate a new preset every time it is pressed, this can

be accomplished in the following way: E11 = Off, E12 = 0;

E13 = 127; E14 = Increment; E15 = +8.

Result: The program number 0 is transmitted the first time

the push button is pressed, 8 the second time, 16 the

third time, then 24, etc. This way you can select each

first preset of a sound bank, which is organized in groups

of eight.

Example 3:

In case you want to activate preset no. 6 in bank 8, adjust

as follows: E11 = 8, E12 = Off, E13 = 6.

5.5.2 Control Changes

5.5.3 NRPN

The Control Change messages (CC) belong to the most “powerful”

MIDI messages. They allow you to control plenty of parameters

and functions. You can assign CC messages to each control

element on the UMA25S. Since it is possible to use push buttons,

sliders and rotary knobs, the controller values can be controlled

either statically or dynamically in real time. A list of the assigned

standard controller numbers are found in Table A.1 of the

supplementary sheet.

Apart from the CC messages, there are other controllers that

don’t have a standardized assignment and can be assigned

variably from unit to unit. These controllers are called NRPN

(Non-Registered Parameter Number). An NRPN is used when

none of the standardized 127 controller numbers have the

necessary function.

Select the parameter number using the E11 rotary knob (see

Table 7.3 in the appendix). Just like the CC messages, the value

range can be adjusted with the E12 (minimum value) and E13

(maximum value) rotary knobs (see Chapter 5.5.4).

The Controller message consists of a controller number and the

included controller values. The E11 rotary knob is used to

determine the controller number.

ꢀ

Table A.3 on the supplementary sheet gives you

classic

For keyboard virtuosos, Note messages belong to the essential

MIDI messages. Thanks to them, the UMA25S can be used to

play external sound modules and virtual instruments. The value

range for Note messages consists of 128 (0 – 127) note numbers.

Although the UMA25S only has 25 keys, the entire keyboard

range is covered using the Octave function. The velocity

corresponds to the volume level of a velocity-sensitive (piano)

keyboard. Even though the Note Off message is not used that

much anymore by keyboardists, the U-CONTROL is able to

transmit this status byte.

application of scale inversion is the drawbar control

of virtual or digital organs or organ expanders. In

this manner, assign the controller 07 (volume) to a

fader on the UMA25S and pulling up the fader

attenuates the signal. On the other hand, moving

down the fader corresponds to moving out the

drawbars which increases the volume level.

Switch elements allow you to send different values when

pressing and releasing the push buttons (use the E12 and E13

rotary knobs to adjust). This is a useful function when sending

fixed parameter settings. The switch behavior is adjusted with

E14, and the step interval for the Increment function is adjusted

with E15.

ꢀ

To play the keyboard, no assignment in Edit Mode

is required. However, you have the possibility to

send Note messages with the push buttons (switch

elements) and to specify the pitch of the keys.

CC messages triggered by keys:

Triggering Note messages using push buttons (switch

elements):

In case you want to assign CC messages to push buttons, but all

switch elements have already been assigned otherwise, you

can use the keys on the keyboard. For more information, read

Chapter 5.5.9.

The UMA25S is able to send Note messages from the push

buttons or the footswitch in order to trigger drum loops and

single sounds from a sampler, for example. Many effects units

allow you to tap delay times or song tempos using Note

messages. Since the push buttons are not velocity sensitive, the

transmitted velocity information is a fix value in this case, which

is adjusted with E12.

ꢀ

Table A.2 on the supplementary sheet gives you

an overview of the rotary knob assignment in

Edit Mode.

The Note number is specified using the E11 rotary knob. The

Note C3 (middle C) corresponds to the MIDI note value 60 (see

also Table 7.2). The E12 rotary knob allows you to adjust the

velocity. E14 lets you specify the switch behavior (Toggle On/

Off). Turn E15 to discard the settings and return to the standard

keyboard assignment (reset function; display shows “reS”).

U-CONTROL UMA25S

5.5.9 Using keys as control elements

5.5.5 Pitch Bend

The Pitch Bend wheel E17 on the UMA25S is used to change the

pitch of a note. It has its own type of message in the MIDI

specification.

Not only the switch elements but also the keys on the keyboard

can trigger CC messages and Note messages. The advantage is

that you don’t have to do without the familiar feel of keys and

velocity sensitivity. This means you have 25 more switch

elements at your fingertips, with Note numbers that are freely

assignable (which is different to standard keyboard assignments).

This is useful when extracting individual drum sounds from a

fixed assignment (for example, a General MIDI drum set) in order

to map them to adjacent keys, even when the sounds are octaves

apart. Another option is to map the notes of a melody to adjacent

keys in order to play the melody literally in sequence.

The Pitch Wheel message can also be assigned to other

continuous elements (such as slider, knobs and expression

pedal). This message has its own status byte, so that it is only

possible to adjust the MIDI channel (E10 rotary knob), the range

(E12 rotary knob) and the display (E16).

ꢀ

Table A.5 on the supplementary sheet gives you an

overview of the rotary knob assignment in

Edit Mode.

Triggering Note messages with keys:

The data structure corresponds to that of the Note messages,

except for the Velocity, which can be played either with a fix

value (0 – 127) or with the Velocity of the keyboard (E12 rotary

knob). Turn E15 to discard the settings and return to the normal

assignment of the keyboard (Reset function; “reS” on display).

5.5.6 After-Touch

MIDI keyboards with after-touch are able to respond to pressure,

even after the key is hit, and to transmit this information. The

function affects either specific keys (Key Pressure) or all notes

equally (Channel Pressure). The UMA25S keyboard is not after-

touch capable, but you can assign this function to other control

elements. This way you can control synthesizer parameters

that are used to control after-touch.

Triggering CC messages with keys:

The data structure corresponds to that of the CC messages for

switching elements, which can be played either with a fix value

(0 – 127) or with the Velocity of the keyboard (E12 rotary knob).

The switch behavior is determined with E14. Turn E15 to discard

the settings (“reS” on display).

Normally, the key value “All” is selected. This setting makes after-

touch equally affect all played notes (“Channel Pressure”). In

case you want to use the less common polyphonic after-touch

(“Key Pressure”), you can apply after-touch to single keys by

using the E11 rotary knob. However, since this is only supported

by very few sound generators, Channel Pressure usually does

the job. For the selected switch element, use E12 to determine

the value at which after-touch turns on and E13 to determine the

value at which it turns off. This way you can also use after-

touch to adjust the modulation range (effect depth).

time when assigning messages, some of which are

identical, or MIDI channels to different keys. In a second

step you can assign different MIDI channels, Note values

and Controller values to individual keys.

5.5.7 MIDI Machine Control (MMC)

1. Press and hold down the EDIT/EXIT push button.

The device switches to Edit Mode.

MIDI Machine Control allows you to operate the transport functions

of a sequencer or drum machine (for example, Start, Stop, Fast

Forward and Rewind) from the UMA25S.

2. Press the keys that you want to edit one after

another. You can either select consecutive keys or

choose a range of the keyboard with a sliding

movement (glissando). It is also possible to select

single, non-consecutive keys. The Note numbers

you choose are now shown on the display in the

order in which they are pressed.

The MIDI Machine Control functions are dedicated to the control

push buttons E1 – E8 (see Chapter 5.2.3) and are activated by

pressing the MMC push button

5.5.8 GS/XG parameters

GS/XG parameters belong to the category of CC and NRPN

messages specified in the MIDI standards GM (General MIDI), GS

(Roland) and XG (Yamaha) (see Table 7.1). These standards

also include dedicated program numbers for certain sounds. If

you have a sound module that supports one of the standards,

assigning parameters is as easy as it gets.

The data have a similar structure to that of CC and NRPN

messages. Use the E11 rotary knob to select the most important

GS/XG-compatible parameters, which are shown on the display

as (shortened) plain text (see Table 7.1).

Just like the CC messages, the value range can be adjusted with

the rotary knobs E12 (minimum value) and E13 (maximum value).

5.6.3 Channel Assign function

5.6.2 Channel Array function

The Channel Assign function lets you assign the SINGLE SEND

CHANNEL for a single control element or the superior GLOBAL

SEND CHANNEL. Please consider the different ways to proceed.

Array function:

This practical function can be used to let several control elements

send the same MIDI message on different MIDI channels. It is

available for the control element groups E1 – E8 and E9 – E16.

Assigning individual channels to a particular control

element (SINGLE) is an alternative to the method already

described in Chapter 5.4:

Assign the first control element (E1 or E9) as already

described (see Chapter 5.4).

Press and hold down the EDIT/EXIT push button. The device

switches to Edit Mode. “Edt” appears on the display.

Press the EDIT push button.

Press the ARRAY key. “C_A” (which stands for Channel

Array) appears on the display for a short time, after which

“E1” is shown. Each time you press the ARRAY key “E1” or

“E9” is displayed.

Operate the control element that you want to edit.

The name of the control element appears on the display

(for example, “E10”).

Release the EDIT/EXIT push button. Its LED lights up.

Press the ARRAY key until the display shows the name of

the control element that you assigned in Step 1.

Press the SINGLE key (in the CH ASSIGN section). “SnG”

appears on the display for a short time.

Press the ENTER key to confirm.

Use the keyboard to enter two digits for the channel you

want to use with the control element (for example, “0” and

“6” for MIDI channel 06).

The array of control elements has now the same function

assigned to them, but each element is consecutively assigned to

incremental MIDI channel numbers. Since the MIDI specification

only provides 16 channels, the following takes place: For example,

if the first element uses Channel 12, the following elements use

the channel numbers 13, 14, 15, 16, 1, 2 and 3.

6a. Press the ENTER key to confirm. The EDIT LED goes out.

6b. Alternatively, press the EDIT/EXIT push button to discard

any changes made and to exit Edit Mode. The EDIT LED

goes out.

Swap function:

The Swap function allows you to switch the MIDI channel

assignment of an array grouped in eight: swap the assignment

of channels 9 – 16 when channels 1 – 8 were selected

beforehand. This means that, for the previous example, the

assignment of channels 12 – 3 would change to 4 – 11.

Assigning the superior GLOBAL SEND CHANNEL:

Press the EDIT/EXIT push button for a short time. The device

switches to Edit Mode. “Edt” appears on the display.

Now press the GLOBAL key (to be found in the CH ASSIGN

section). “GLo” appears on the display for a short time.

Press the EDIT push button.

Press the SWAP key. “C_S” (which stands for Channel

Swap) appears on the display for a short time, after which

“E1” is shown. Each time you press the SWAP key “E1” or

“E9” is displayed.

Use the keyboard to enter two digits for the GLOBAL SEND

CHANNEL you want to use (for example, “0” and “6” for

MIDI channel 06).

buttons. “GLb” for Global Mode appears on the display.

Now you can make the necessary settings by using the

rotary knobs E9 to E16. The assignment of the knobs is as

follows:

ꢀ

Please note that the channel assignment in GLOBAL

EDIT Mode differs from the above described GLOBAL

SEND CHANNEL method! For more information, read

Chapter 5.7.

5.6.4 Snapshot Send (Send TX)

The Snapshot Send transmits all values of the current controller

positions. This allows a synchronization of the UMA25S’ settings

with the connected MIDI device.

Table 5.2: Rotary knob assignment in Global Mode

Press the EDIT push button.

Press the EDIT/EXIT push button to exit Global Mode.

Press the SNAP TX key. The UMA25S transmits the status

of all control elements including the positions of the 8 rotary

knobs, the state of the 8 push buttons, etc.

ꢀ

The settings in Global Mode are directly taken over

and need not be separately stored.

After sending the snapshot the UMA25S switches to Play Mode.

Global Receive Channel:

ꢀ

In addition to the Snap TX function, there is also the

Single Preset Dump (see Chapter 5.7). Both of these

functions differ in the type of data they send. With a

Snapshot Send, only the current control values are

transmitted, which are synchronized with the

connected MIDI device. A Single Preset Dump on

the other hand allows the entire content of the

current preset, including the present control

element assignment, to be transmitted. This

function allows you easily to archive and exchange

individual presets with other U-CONTROL users.

The UMA25S receives Program Change messages on this

channel in order to load the presets.

ꢀ

Please note that the channel assignment in CH

ASSIGN Mode differs from the described method

in GLOBAL EDIT Mode! For more information, read

Chapter 5.6.3.

Device ID Number:

Only change the Device ID number settings when you are working

with several U-CONTROLs at the same time and encounter

problems recognizing the correct device during a SysEx dump.

5.6.5 Sending a Notes Off message

It may happen that a Note Off message cannot be transmitted

when the connection between the UMA25S and the other devices

is interrupted in which case the notes keep on playing. This kind

of situation requires you manually to trigger the Notes Off

message which mutes all connected sound modules at once.

The Notes Off message is sent to each of the 16 MIDI channels.

ꢀ

Please note that SysEx dumps can only be received

at the Device ID number from which they were sent!

SysEx Dump ALL:

By turning the E11 rotary knob, the entire memory contents of

the 16 presets is sent as SysEx dump via MIDI. During the dump,

the display flashes “Run”. You can cancel the process by turning

the E11 rotary knob until “End” appears on the display.

Press the EDIT push button.

Press the NOTES OFF key. The Notes Off message is

immediately transmitted. “NOF” appears on the display.

In order to receive a SysEx dump, no settings on your equipment

have to be adjusted.

The device automatically switches to Play Mode.

ꢀ

CAUTION: If you send an “All SysEx Dump” to the

U-CONTROL, the entire memory content is directly

overwritten! There is no prompt for confirmation

nor a memory safety function!

5.6.6 Action Send function

The Action Send function lets you trigger the transmission of a

specific control element. For example, this function allows you

to send a one-off MIDI message which is only supposed to be

assigned to a control element for a short time.

SysEx Dump SINGLE:

Press and hold down the EDIT push button.

Turn the control element that you want reassigned.

Release the EDIT push button.

By turning the E12 rotary knob, the current preset is sent as

SysEx dump. During the dump, the display flashes “Run”. You

can cancel the process by turning the E12 rotary knob until “End”

appears on the display.

Use E9 to E16 to make the assignment.

In order to receive a SysEx dump, no settings on your equipment

have to be adjusted. If you send a single preset to the UMA25S,

the data are first stored in a temporary memory. In order to be

stored permanently, save the data in a memory slot of your

choice (see Chapter 5.1.2).

Press the ACTION SEND key. The MIDI message is trans-

mitted.

6a. Press the EDIT/EXIT push button to discard any changes

you made.

6b. Alternatively, if you want to keep the new assignment,

press ENTER to confirm. Additionally, store the changes in

a preset.
