The MIDI key provides access to a number of parameters related to Midi.
In this section you will learn to:
• Remove or "thin out" selected event types from the Midi input data
• Remove velocity data from the incoming Midi input data
• Set the MIDI SOFT THROUGH feature
• Select or defeat the MPC60's special sustain pedal processing
• Assign incoming Midi note numbers to the internal drums
• Assign outgoing drums to Midi note numbers
• Select the Midi channel which the internal drums play from
• Remotely control the Akai ME-35T Audio/Midi Trigger interface And

When the MIDI key is pressed, the following screen appears:
There are four options. The fourth option, ALL NOTES OFF, causes a
midi "All notes off" command to be sent out on all channels, forcing any
notes currently playing to be immediately turned off. Sometimes, because of
slight midi incompatibilities between instruments, a note may erroneously
stay on. Selecting this option should cause any notes which are on to be
turned off.
The functions of the first three selections are described in detail in the
following sections.
