"The Kenton [Chroma] MIDI kits all seem to follow the same format (I have one installed in my Rev 1 Prophet 5). The kit is 'dumb', at least dumber than something like the KMX interface in that the KMX hooks into the Chroma firmware to give you a user-interface to set parameters. Kenton does all of its 'stuff' outside of the smarts of the machine its installed in. Â The way it does itis that there's a red button that gets installed on the outside case of the keyboard. By pressing the button certain ways you configure the interface for certain mode. For instance, tapping the button two times quickly puts the device into 'setup mode', which is where the table you note comes into play. When in this mode, the interface uses the keyboard keys to act like input buttons."
