As of firmware version 7.1.8, all the key and encoder product have octave change feature. Optimally, octave change with key would be better than encoder (detent encoder would be better than non detent encoder in this particular scenario. 13K1E has detented encoder. You can feel bumps when you turn)
How to set the keys to octave channels
Enter WEB CONFIGURATOR
If your device is 13K1E, let's make encoder left turn as octave down and turning left as octave up.
Select HCI mode and choose MIDI Octave - and Octave + on LEFT and RIGHT turn.
Octave change limits
it changes to up +3 and down to -3
LED INDICATOR
Some products support LED indicator so the user can check current channel offset. There're two LEDS. One left and one right.
- LEFT LED STEADY: -3
- LEFT LED FAST BLINK: -2
- LEFT LED SLOW BLINK: -1
- ALL LED OFF: 0
- RIGHT LED SLOW BLINK: +1
