UAD Console supports the ability to use MIDI to remotely set the tempo used for the Tempo Sync feature, and to recall Plug-In Scenes with MIDI messages. The MIDI panel is where the specific MIDI controls are set. MIDI data is received by UAD Console via the operating system.

• If the controller is sending MIDI Program Change messages, Scenes 1–128 correspond to MIDI program change messages 0–127. Your controller may label these as 0–127 or 1–128, so it is important to check that your scenes are switching correctly.
• If the controller is sending Note data, Scenes 1-128 correspond to MIDI notes C(-1)–G(9).
