About Tools

The Tools sub-menu contains different features that can be used to monitor, control, and configure NGEN's settings.


List of Available Tools

MIDI MONITOR (MONITOR)

The built-in MIDI Monitor lets you track incoming and outgoing MIDI messages. It can be used to make sure that NGEN is receiving MIDI clock, notes, and control changes from other devices and that it's also sending MIDI messages appropriately.

The four columns in the MIDI Monitor represent message type, number (note or CC number), value, and channel.

To switch between IN and OUT, press the GENERATE button.
