1) Connect the jack MIDI INPUT (16) via a MIDI
cable to the MIDI output of the PC. The jack
MIDI OUTPUT (15) allows connection of
another MIDI-controlled unit.
2) For MIDI control, set the MFX-204 to the MIDI
channel used for controlling it:
a) Keep the button FX LOAD/ PAR / TAP
pressed for approx. 3 seconds until the
following text is displayed:
Config Communication
<
Device: USB
If the MFX-204 has already been con-
trolled via MIDI, the last MIDI channel
adjusted will appear behind "Device", e. g.
<
"Device: MIDI Ch=12
MIDI channel 12.
b) Select the MIDI channel (1 – 16) with the
control PAR VALUE (7). If the display indi-

cates "Device:
trol counter-clockwise.
c) To exit the setting mode, keep the button
FX LOAD/ PAR / TAP pressed again for
approx. 3 seconds until the display indi-
cates an effect name.
3) After setting the MIDI channel, the effects will
be selected with a corresponding Program
Change command. Control Change com-
mands are used to activate and deactivate the
Bypass function and to change all effect
parameters. The tables below list the values
required.

Example: For the effect REVERB HALL,
select the parameter PEQ1 Q (bandwidth of
bell filter 1): According to the table on page 3,
parameter PEQ1 Q is number 9. Therefore,
set MIDI controller 17 to the value 9 – 1 = 8.
2) To change the parameter, set MIDI controller
16 to a corresponding value. Tables 3 – 6 list

that the step sizes will differ according to
the adjusting range.
Example: Setting the parameter Time of the
effect GATE REVERB to 100 ms: The next
possible value is 94.5 ms (3 × 31.5 ms). For
this purpose, set MIDI controller 16 to the
value 3.
