1. LCD – The display is used for navigating menus, displaying data, and affecting change on MPD26’s

options and parameters.

2. [VALUE] (Push to Enter) – This dial is used to increment and decrement Presets, parameter values

and settings. This dial also functions as an [ENTER] button when it is pressed down.

3. [<] AND [>] – These buttons are used for navigate through fields of menus and options. The [<] button

also functions as a [CANCEL] button.

4. [PRESET] – This button calls up Preset Mode. You can select and recall different Preset programs in

this mode.

5. [EDIT] – This button calls up Edit Mode, which allows you to edit the behavior of pads, knobs, faders

and default settings for each preset.

6. [GLOBAL] – This button calls up Global Mode, where MIDI reset commands and global system

preferences are set.

7. [PROGRAM CHANGE] – Pressing this button will enter Program Change mode. In this mode, you can

send a Program Change or Program with Bank Change message to a hardware or software module.

8. [PREVIEW] – This button allows you to see what value will be sent by a controller, without actually

sending the value. This gives you precise control over your parameters and helps avoid erroneous

controller data being sent to your devices due to the physical position of the controller. Holding down

[PREVIEW] allows you to view the original value and adjust the physical position of a fader, for

example, as necessary before transmitting any values.
