8 MIDIcon™ User Manual
OVERVIEW
The MIDIcon is a USB MIDI controller designed to work alongside the Elation Lighting
software packages. The controller is USB powered and uses the USB class drivers so that no
driver needs to be installed on the host PC. When you power the controller ON for the first
time, your PC will automatically assign the MIDI driver that is part of your operating system. It
will work with both Windowsand Apple™ operating systems. The controller uses standard
MIDI messages to communicate with your software. Tables showing the MIDI notes and
continuous control numbers assigned to the buttons and faders are listed at the end of this
manual.
Elation Lighting software programs will have templates for MIDIcon so that you can start
using it right away, without having to program each button. Elation Lighting will continue to
work with software vendors to provide templates for more programs in the future. If you
have software that allows input from a MIDI control panel, you can also use the
programming functions included with your software to configure it to work with MIDIcon.
Refer to the picture of MIDIcon in the Device Overview section of this manual, which
provides an illustration of controls broken down into the following 6 sections:
Playbacks: This includes most of the left side of the control panel, 8 playback faders with 3 buttons
above each fader (A, B, C). The page select section in the upper left also applies to the playbacks.
Shortcuts: Above the playbacks are 6 shortcut keys labeled S1-S6.
Memories: In the upper right area are 32 buttons for recalling memories or scenes. The page
display next to this selection also applies to these 32 buttons.
Data Entry Wheels: Below the 32 buttons are 3 wheels that can be used for data entry or
direct control of lighting parameters.
Touchpad: Below the wheels are 12 touch buttons for triggering momentary lighting effects.
Master and Blackout: In the center there is a grand master fader and a blackout button.
The MIDIcon controller sends MIDI note on and note off messages to your software
whenever buttons are pressed and when the data wheels are turned. It also sends MIDI
continuous controller messages when you move the faders or use the page selects. When a
button is pressed a MIDI note on message is sent and when a button is released a MIDI note
off message is sent. This will allow you to control momentary effects.
The MIDIcon controller can receive note messages and continuous controller messages to
control the LEDs and the page displays. This allows your software to take control of the
controller so that they will be in sync with each other. As soon as the controller receives any
LED control message, it will defer to the software for LED control from that point forward.
