Configuration messages
Velocity curve
This message configures the Velocity curve of the Keys and the Pads, which are normally available in
the Settings menu:
Host => Launchkey MK3:
Hex: F0h 00h 20h 29h 02h 0Fh 02h <target> <curve> F7h
Dec: 240 0 32 41 2 15 2 <target> <curve> 247
The <target> specifies which part to set the velocity curve for:
- 0: Keys
- 1: Pads
For <curve> , the followings are available:
- 0: Soft (Playing soft notes is easier).
- 1: Medium.
- 2: Hard (Playing hard notes is easier).
- 3: Fixed velocity.
Startup animation
The Launchkey MK3’s Startup animation can be modified by the following SysEx:
Host => Launchkey MK3:
Hex: F0h 00h 20h 29h 02h 0Fh 78h <interval> <rgb> [<rgb> […]] F7h
Dec: 240 0 32 41 2 15 120 <interval> <rgb> [<rgb> […]] 247
The <interval> byte specifies the interval in 2 millisecond units for advancing one pad towards the
right and up.
The <rgb> field is a triplet of Red, Green and Blue components (0 – 127 range each), specifying the
colour to scroll in on the subsequent step. The animation is smoothly interpolated between the steps.
Up to 56 steps may be added, further steps are ignored.
Upon receiving this message, the Launchkey MK3 runs the Startup animation set up (without actually
rebooting), so the result can be immediately observed.
The following SysEx message encodes the original Startup animation:
Host => Launchkey MK3:
Hex: F0h 00h 20h 29h 02h 0Fh 78h 28h
00h 0Fh 05h 00h 1Eh 0Ah 00h 28h 14h 00h 50h 1Eh 00h 64h 32h 00h 7Fh 50h
00h 7Fh 64h 00h 7Fh 7Fh 00h 64h 7Fh 00h 50h 7Fh 00h 3Fh 7Fh 00h 28h 7Fh
00h 13h 7Fh 00h 00h 7Fh 00h 00h 64h 00h 00h 3Fh F7h
