Arturia KeyLab 88 MkII [28/89] Sending a panic message

2.15.2. Sending a Panic Message

It's possible a note might continue playing if you switch between different instruments while

holding down a key. Similarly, sometimes a controller value will remain at an unwanted

value. These situations can be fixed easily by sending what is known as a "Panic Message",

which resets all controllers and sends a "note off" message to all MIDI channels.

To send a Panic message from the KeyLab mkII, press the Stop button quickly three times.

2.15.3. Factory Reset

Sometimes you may wish to reset your KeyLab mkII back to the factory settings. This

process will initialize the unit, putting in its default state.



!: Performing a factory reset will overwrite all 10 User presets with a default preset. Be sure to back

up your settings using the MIDI Control Center.

To perform a factory reset on your KeyLab mkII, follow these simple steps:

• Turn off the KeyLab mkII using the power switch on the back of the unit.

• Press and hold Oct+ and Oct- buttons.

• Turn the power switch back on.

• The LCD screen will display a factory reset message.

• To confirm that you want to perform the factory reset, press the center knob.
