1. Power Input: If you do not want to use a computer in your setup (i.e., if you are using

Trigger Finger Pro to control an external MIDI module), connect this input to a power

outlet using an optional power adapter (6V DC, 1A, center-positive, sold separately). You

do not need this connection when using Trigger Finger Pro with a computer; it will be

2. Power Switch: Press this button to power Trigger Finger Pro on or off.

3. USB Port: Use a standard USB cable to connect this USB port to your computer. The

computer's USB port provides ample power to Trigger Finger Pro. This connection is also

used to send and receive MIDI data to and from your computer.

4. MIDI Out: Use a standard five-pin MIDI cable to connect this MIDI Out to the MIDI In of

an external MIDI device (e.g., a synthesizer, sequencer, drum machine, etc.).

5. Display: Use this LCD to view Trigger Finger Pro's menus, options, parameters, and

settings.

6. Value Dial (Push to Enter):Use this dial to change the Preset, parameter values, settings,

etc. Pressing the dial also functions as an Enter button.

7. Function Buttons: Press these buttons to execute the command shown right above it in

the display.

8. Save: Press this button to save the current Preset, Sequence, Preferences, or all three.

Tip: Press and hold this button for two seconds to perform an automatic Save All. This

saves your Presets, Sequences, and Preferences all at once.

9. Assignable Knobs: Use these 360º knobs to send MIDI CC messages to your software

or external MIDI device. Alternatively, you can set the knobs to communicate with your

software using the Mackie Control or HUI protocols or to communicate with Arsenal. See

Working with Presets: Assignable Controls for more information.

In Pad Mode and Sequence Mode, use these knobs to adjust the parameters shown right

above them in the display.

10. Assignable Faders: Use these faders to send MIDI CC messages to your software or

external MIDI device. Alternatively, you can set the faders to communicate with your

software using the Mackie Control or HUI protocols or to communicate with Arsenal. See

Working with Presets: Assignable Controls for more information.

11. Assignable Buttons: Use these buttons to send MIDI CC messages or Program Change

messages to your software or external MIDI device. They can function as momentary,

toggle (latching), or single-message buttons. Alternatively, you can set the buttons to

communicate with your software using the Mackie Control or HUI protocols or to

communicate with Arsenal. See Working with Presets: Assignable Controls for more

information.

12. Control Bank: Press this button to cycle through the four independent banks of

Assignable Knobs, Assignable Faders, and Assignable Buttons. The current control

bank letter (A–D) will appear in the display. All 12 physical controls will always be in the

same bank (e.g., you cannot adjust a knob in Control Bank A and a fader in Control Bank

B simultaneously).

Press and hold this button to see an overview of the control mapping (MIDI, Mackie

Control, HUI, or Arsenal) for the entire control bank. Use the assignable buttons to

select the control bank you are viewing.

13. Pads: Use these pads to trigger drum hits or other samples in your software or external

MIDI sound module. The pads are pressure- and velocity-sensitive, which makes them

very responsive and intuitive to play.

14. Pad Bank: Press this button to cycle through the four independent banks of pads. The

current pad bank letter (A–D) will appear in the display.

Press and hold this button to access the pads' secondary functions:

•Press Pad 1, 2, 3, or 4to directly select Pad Bank A, B, C, or D(respectively).

•Press and hold Pad 9, 10, 11, or 12 to mute or unmute Pad Bank A, B, C, or D

(respectively) in the current Sequence. This is essentially a momentary mute feature

for each pad bank.

•Press Pad 13, 14, 15, or 16 to mute or unmute Pad Bank A, B, C, or D(respectively)

in the current Sequence. This is essentially a toggle (latching) mute feature for each

pad bank.

15. Roll: Press this button to activate or deactivate Pad Roll Mode. When you press and hold

a pad while in this mode, the sound will repeat at the rate determined by the current Time

Division setting.

Important: The Time Division setting affects both Sequence playback and Pad Roll

Mode. In other words, the rate of a pad roll will always correspond to the Sequence's

Time Division.

16. Fixed: Press this button to activate or deactivate Fixed Mode in which all pads will play

their sounds at a fixed velocity level (which can be set in Pad Mode), regardless of how

hard you hit them.

17. Play: Press this button to start playback of Trigger Finger Pro's Sequencer and your

DAW.

18. Stop: Press this button to stop playback of Trigger Finger Pro's Sequencer and your

DAW.

19. Record (Rec): Press this button to record-arm Trigger Finger Pro's Sequencer.

20. Loop: Press this button to activate or deactivate the Loop feature for the current bar of

the Sequence.

21. Step Switches: When playing a Sequence, these switches will light up to indicate which

steps contain a pad event. Press a switch to enable it (place an event) or disable it (delete

an event). Press and hold a switch for 1 second to enter a "tie" event (the note from the

previous step will continue sounding into the tied step).

When you press and hold Select, these switches perform secondary functions, which will

appear in the display. See the Operation: Modes: Select Mode section for more

information.

22. Step Indicators: When playing a Sequence, these LEDs will light up to indicate different

parameters. In Performance Mode, they show: the bar currently being played (a green

LED), the bar currently shown in the Step Switches (an aqua LED), and the current step

being played (a blue LED).
