Installation
1.
Double-click the
.exe
(Windows
®
) or
.pkg
(Mac
®
OS X
®
) installer file you downloaded.
2.
Follow the on-screen instructions.
After the installation has completed, open the
Code 61 Preset Editor
by doing the following:
•
Windows:
Click the
Start Menu
, click
All Programs
, click the
M-Audio
folder, and then click
Code 61 Preset Editor
.
•
Mac OS X:
Double-click
Code 61 Preset Editor
in
Applications
.

Operation
Getting Started
To open the Code 61 Editor:
1.
Optional:
Connect your Code 61 keyboard to your computer using a standard USB cable.
(If you are connecting your keyboard to a USB hub, make sure it is a powered hub.) You can still use the editor without connecting a Code 61, but you will not be able to send presets to it or retrieve presets from it.
2.
Open the Code 61 Editor. The window will show a graphical representation of your Code
61 with all of its editable controls.

Managing Your Presets
About Presets
A preset is a preset file (
.Code61
) containing all of the assignments you make in the Editor.
This includes MIDI assignments, HID keystroke assignments, and color assignments. Using presets lets you maintain several different control configurations to use in different situations.
For instance, you may use different presets with different kinds of software, or you may use some presets for production and others for performance.
Your Code 61 keyboard can store
12
presets at a time. You can store additional presets on your computer to load onto your Code 61 keyboard with this editor.
This chapter explains how to load presets into the editor (
), save presets onto your computer (
), and send presets to your connected Code
).
Note:
The current preset’s name is shown in the upper-right corner of the window. This is the name that appears in your Code 61 keyboard’s display when you load it. To change the name, click the field and enter a new name. Preset names can be 6 characters long and can include the following characters:
A
–
Z
,
0
–
9
,
[ ] / \ = _ ' .
and spaces.
6
Loading & Retrieving Presets
To edit a preset, you first have to load it into the Code 61 Editor. You can
load
a preset from your computer or
retrieve
a preset from your connected Code 61 keyboard.
Note:
The current preset’s name is shown in the upper-right corner of the window. This is the name that appears in your Code 61 keyboard’s display when you load it. To change the name, click the field and enter a new name. Preset names can be 6 characters long and can include the following characters:
A
–
Z
,
0
–
9
,
[ ] / \ = _ ' .
and spaces.
To load a preset from your computer,
do one of the following:
•
Click
File
and then click
Load Preset
.
•
Press
Ctrl
+
O
(Windows) or
Control
+
O
(Mac OS X).
After that, locate the desired preset file (
.Code61
), and click
Open
.
To retrieve a preset from your connected Code 61:
1.
Click
File
and then click
Retrieve Preset
. Alternatively, press
Ctrl
+
Shift
+
R
(Windows) or
Control
+
Shift

) or the current settings of your Code 61 (
RAM
).
3.
Click
Get
to confirm your choice, or click the
X
in the upper-right corner to close the window and cancel the operation.
Important:
Editing this preset will not affect the preset stored on your Code 61. See
below to learn how to send the edited preset to your Code 61.
7
Saving Presets
Saving a preset on your computer lets you edit it or send it to your Code 61 in the future. All
MIDI assignments that you see in the editor will be saved in the preset.
Note:
The current preset’s name is shown in the upper-right corner of the window. This is the name that appears in your Code 61 keyboard’s display when you load it. To change the name, click the field and enter a new name. Preset names can be 6 characters long and can include the following characters:
A
–
Z
,
0
–
9
,
[ ] / \ = _ ' .
and spaces.
To save the preset,
do one of the following:

(Mac OS X).
If this is the first time you are saving the preset, select the desired location, enter a file name, and click
Save
. The preset will be saved as a
.Code61
file.

Sending Presets
Sending a preset to your connected Code 61 lets you transfer the preset from the editor to your Code 61 keyboard’s internal memory. All MIDI assignments that you see in the editor will be sent to your Code 61.
Note:
The current preset’s name is shown in the upper-right corner of the window. This is the name that appears in your Code 61 keyboard’s display when you load it. To change the name, click the field and enter a new name. Preset names can be 6 characters long and can include the following characters:
A
–
Z
,
0
–
9
,
[ ] / \ = _ ' .
and spaces.
To send a preset to your connected Code 61:
1.
Click
File
and then click
Send Preset
. Alternatively, press
Ctrl
+
Shift
+
S
(Windows) or
Control
+
Shift
+
S
(Mac OS X).
2.
In the window that appears, click the drop-down menu to select the desired preset number (
Preset 1
–
12
) or the current settings of your Code 61 (
RAM
).
3.
Click
Send
to confirm your choice, or click the
X
in the upper-right corner to close the window and cancel the operation. (Sending the preset will overwrite that preset number on your Code 61.)

Use the 5
Color
drop-down menus to select the color for each button state. The fifth drop-down menu corresponds to its color in HID Mode. (All
4 drop-down menus will be shown even if the button uses only 2 or 3 states.)

HID
The HID (human interface device) protocol lets devices send standard computer keyboard keystrokes. USB game controllers are an example of this, acting as an alternative to your computer’s keyboard. Your Code 61 keyboard’s assignable
buttons
can also use the HID protocol, letting you configure certain buttons to send your most-often used keystrokes to your software (for example,
Control
+
C
to copy).
Use the
Key
drop-down menu to select the keystroke the button will send:

Keybed
The
keybed
(the piano keys) on your Code 61 can be divided into 1–4 “zones.” When zones are active (when the
Zone
button and one or more
Zone 1
–
4
buttons are lit), each zone can send its controls’ MIDI messages over its own MIDI channel. You can assign the parameters for the keybed/zones in MIDI Mode only.
Tip:
This feature is great for dividing your Code keyboard between different virtual instruments or synthesizers. For example, you can create two zones, each using a different MIDI channel, and play and control two virtual instruments simultaneously—one with each half of the keys.
Click one of the
Zone 1
–
4
piano keys to set the MIDI assignments for the corresponding zone on your Code 61. All 4 zones have the same parameters, which you can set independently.
These are the available parameters:
•
On
/
Off:
When this box is checked, the zone on your Code 61 keyboard will be active.
When this box is unchecked, the zone on your Code 61 keyboard will be inactive.
•
First:
The zone’s lowest key will correspond with this note.
•
Last:
The zone’s highest key will correspond with this note.
48
•
Octave:
The zone’s keys will send their notes using this octave shift (from their original position on the keybed).
Note:
The zone octave and transposition are independent from the keyboard’s overall octave and transposition, but all of these affect the note a key sends out.
•
Transpose:
The zone’s keys will send their notes using this transposition (from their original position on the keybed).
Note:
The zone octave and transposition are independent from the keyboard’s overall octave and transposition, but all of these affect the note a key sends out.
•
Program:
The zone will send this program number when you press a key in it.
•
MSB:
The zone will send this Bank MSB (Most Significant Byte) number when you press a key in it.
•
LSB:
The zone will send this Bank LSB (Least Significant Byte) number when you press a key in it.
•
Chan:
The zone will send its messages over this channel. Select the global channel
(
Global
), a specific channel (
Channel 1
–
16
), a zone (
Zone 1
–
4
), or all channels (
Omni
).
Note:
Any other controls whose
Chan
settings are set to this zone will send their messages using this channel, as well.
