Setup Menu

The Setup menu gives access to additional functions such as control assign, load, save, selecting velocity curves and more.

To enter the menu, press the [Setup] button. This will mute the MIDI output of the keyboard and instead the keyboard now is

used to select menus.

When the Setup menu is active, the display will show {S.E.t.} with the 3 dots blinking for as long as the menu is active.

The chart below provides an overview of menus assigned to each key and what display abbreviations you see in the Impact

LX25 display (in parentheses), when a key is pressed.

The functions are separated in to two groups. The first group spanning C1-F#3 covers control assignments and behavior,

including Save and Load of the 5 presets and 4 pad maps. When you press the keys in this group you first see an

abbreviation showing the function. This means you can press keys until you find exactly the menu you want without worrying

about controls changing assignments. Since this group of functions are the ones you most likely will use more regularly this

makes the menus easy to find.

The second group spanning C4-A4 covers global and setup functions. Most of the second group functions will show you their

current status when you press a key.

On the following page we cover how each of these menus work. Note the documentation assumes you have an understanding

of MIDI including how it works and behaves. If you are not familiar with MIDI, we recommend you study MIDI before making

control assignment changes to your keyboard. A good place to start is the MIDI Manufacturers Association www.midi.org
