Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the WORLDEMINI USB MIDI controller. WORLDEMINI is a high quality, feature-packed controller

which includes all the essentials to start making music.To help you get the most out of your new instrument, please read this

manual carefully.

Your WORLDEMINI midi controller will not make any sound unless it is connected to a computer or other external MIDI gear.

This is because the WORLDEMINI sends MIDI data when you play it and does not produce sound on its own. Instead, it is

used to control a virtual instrument on your computer or a MIDI sound module to generate sounds.

In order to use the functions of this product, you’ll need to make settings in the application you’re using. Make settings as

described in the owner’s manual for your application.

WORLDEMINI integrates perfectly with DAWs (such as Ableton Live, Bitwig and so on) for both production and performance.

Features

 Two banks of 8 backlit performance pads, for 16 total, can be assigned easily as pads, MIDI CC buttons or Program

change switches.

 25 keys with velocity assignable to controllers, with 3 velocity curve and one constant velocity.

 16 assignable encoders.

 pitch and modulation touch strips.

 USB interface, adaptable to USB 2.0(FULL SPEED). Power supplied by USB.

 Compatible with Win 10/8/7/XP/Vista and Mac OSX. Drive free and hot-plug supported.

3.1.2 Keyboard

WORLDEMINI has a 25-key velocity-sensitive mini-keyboard with a control surface designed for perfect integration with

software interface.

3.1.3 Pitch and Modulation touch strips

If you touch the Pitch bend strip at its center and move your finger forward or backward it will alter the pitch of the played

sound. The range of the pitch bend is determined by the preset that has been selected.

Similarly, moving your finger along the Modulation strip alters the modulation amount of the played sound. The level of

modulation introduced by activating the modulation strip depends on which preset is selected.

Note:The modulation strip may not be assigned to modulate a parameter in some presets.

Pitch and Modulation strips

3.1.4 Shift and Pad Bank buttons

Let’s start on the right: The Pads 1-8/9-16 button toggles the WORLDEMINI pads between two different sets of eight pad

assignments.

The Shift button serves two purposes: recalling one of eight presets from memory (Shift+ pad), and selecting the master

MIDI channel (Shift + keyboard).

The Shift and Pad Bank buttons

3.1.5 Octave buttons

Pushing one of the down or up buttons will transpose the keyboard by as much as four octaves up or down. The farther from

center the keyboard has been transposed, the faster the buttons will flash.

To reset the keyboard octave range back to center, press both buttons at the same time.

Octave buttons

3.1.6 Parameter control encoders

The sixteen encoders can be assigned to control any editable parameter on the selected device.

The Parameter control encoders

3.1.7 The pads/preset buttons

The eight large buttons arranged across the front of the WORLDEMINI serve a dual purpose. Their exact duties are

determined by the state of the Shift and Pads buttons.

For example: The pads can be assigned to trigger up to sixteen particular MIDI notes (drums, stabs, bass notes, whatever).

When the Pads 1-8/9-16 button is not lit, the first bank of pads is active (1-8). When the Pads 1-8/9-16 button is lit, the

second bank of pads is active (9-16).

However, when used in conjunction with the Shift button, the pads will recall one of eight MIDI presets. This is accomplished

by holding the Shift button and pressing one of the pads.

The pads/ preset buttons

3.2 Side panel overview

The side panel of the WORLDEMINI contains two important connectors: the footswitch jack and a USB Type B jack.

Side panel

The footswitch jack functions as an on/off switch and can be configured for either momentary applications (such as sustain

pedal) or latching behavior (first press/release sends one event, second press/release sends the next event). The default is

sustain control(No.64). Use the WORLDEMINI software editor to assign the pedal to other functions. It can be assigned to

128 different control No.

Note: the default setting for footswitch jack is open meaning that pressing the pedal will function as sustain. If it’s without

sustain function when pressed, it means that the pedal polarity is opposite, so it needs to adjust the polarity by moving the

pedal polarity switch to the other end.

5.Using WORLDE MINI with Software

5.1 Creating MIDI Presets with the software editor

5.1.1 Overview: What is a WORLDEMINI Preset?

Thanks to the software editor it’s possible to configure the WORLDEMINI to work with practically any device or software

capable of responding to MIDI information.

To summarize, here are some examples of what you can do with a WORLDEMINI preset:

● Assign pads to send MIDI Machine Control commands (MMC)

● Use the pads or the pedal to transmit MIDI notes

●Switch between two values of any MIDI CC# by playing a pad

●Assign an encoder to control any MIDI CC# and define its operational range

●Send Aftertouch messages from the Mod strip, set its min/max limits, and select ‘return to zero’ or ‘hold’ behavior

●Save the entire set of altered controls to one of WORLDEMINI’s eight preset locations

●Define another seven sets of parameter assignments and save each one to a different memory location

● Recall any of the eight personalized presets easily and immediately.

5.1.2 Assign a Pad to Start/Stop MMC

One feature that often comes in handy with a controller keyboard is the ability to start and stop a song without having to use

the computer keyboard or mouse. It’s really easy to set up the WORLDEMINI pads to do that.

For example we’ll use Pad 7 to send Stop commands and Pad 8 to send Start commands. This is accomplished through the

use of MIDI Machine Control commands, which you’ve probably seen abbreviated as “MMC”.

5.1.2.1 Select the Pad Mode

Let’s begin by selecting Pad 7 by clicking on its graphic in the software editor or by tapping Pad 7 on the WORLDEMINI.

Then click the Mode field to activate the pull-down menu:

5.1.2.2 Set the MMC Message number

Once the Mode has been set to MMC, the trick is to set both the LSB and MSB to the same number so the pad knows which

command to send. MMC Stop command needs the CC number set to 1, like so:

Next, select Pad 8 so we can set it to the MMC command for “Start”. This means the CC number must be set to 2:

Now you should have Pad 8 set to start your song and Pad 7 set to stop it. Of course you can assign those functions to any

pad you like, now that you know how to do it.

5.1.3 Assign a couple of Pads to MIDI notes

The natural thing to do when you’re starting a song is to lay down the kick and snare tracks. The WORLDEMINI pads can be

assigned to any MIDI note number that you like, so for this example we’ll set Pads 1 and 2 to trigger the General MIDI note

numbers for the Bass drum and Snare drum (MIDI note numbers 36 and 38, respectively).

By default the pads have their Mode set to MIDI note, so when you select each Pad we’ll get right down to selecting the MIDI

note number and velocity values. Let’s leave the other setting to “Gate” so the notes shut off when you lift the pad; you can

try the “Toggle” value later if you’d like the MIDI note to stay “On” until you hit the pad a second time.

5.1.3.1 Select the MIDI note number: Kick

The CC number field is used to set the MIDI note number, which makes sense: there are 128 MIDI Controller numbers and

128 MIDI Note numbers. So click the pull-down menu and set this value to 36 to select the General MIDI Kick drum note

number:

We’ll show you how to set Pad 2 to the Snare drum note number in section 5.1.3.2.

5.1.3.2 Select the MIDI note number: Snare

Setting Pad 2 to trigger the snare is done the same way, only by choosing a different MIDI note number (38 in this case):
