Basic concept

The panel editing features in the MIDI Device Manager can be seen as a separate application or entity within Cubase. It allows you to build device maps complete with control panels, including all parameters controllable from within Cubase.

Building more complex device maps requires that you are familiar with SysEx programming (see the separate PDF document “MIDI Devices”). But you can also create simpler panels by assigning MIDI Control Change messages to control objects, which does not require any programming skills. Although these powerful editing features are there if you need them, you do not have to use them to use MIDI devices.
