five setups. This gives a grand total of 18 studio parameters that can be under real-time control.
Don't worry, you don't have to use them all.
Bus Assignments
The first column lets you choose which bus inside the studio you want this FXMod to control:
Input A, B, C, or D (if any of the Inputs is set to Mono, you will get to choose individual
channels, for example A/L and A/R); FXBus 1, 2, 3, or 4; the Aux bus; or the Mix bus.
Parameter Assignments
The second column chooses the specific parameter on the selected bus. Scrolling through the
choices shows that this selection is context-sensitive: it shows only parameters that are being
used in the current studio on the selected bus, so you can't make assignments to irrelevant or
nonexistent parameters. It "knows" which EQs are active, and what modes they are set to;
which Input sends are assigned and whether the sends are in Pan or Balance mode; what
parameters are being used in the FX preset on the particular bus; etc. If you need to know more
about how the studio is set up, you can go into it and look around, as explained above.
Here's an example: set the FX Studio to 201*RngMd/PFD/Plt which we looked at on page 9-26.
Set the bus on the first line to InA. Set the cursor under Param: and scroll the choices. They
correspond exactly to the parameters available in the Input Editor page: level and frequency for
the two EQs, and SendLvl, Pan, and Width for the two FX sends. Note that you cannot change
the FXBus assignments on an input from here; you must do that within the studio itself.
Change the bus to FX1, and all of the parameters from the FX preset on FXBus1 are available for
selection, including Mod Mode and the various settings for the preset's internal oscillators, as
well as the bus's output controls: Mix Level, Mix Balance, Aux Level, and Aux Balance. Change
the bus to AuxFX, and the Aux bus's parameters are available: levels, delays, room types, etc.
Setting the bus to Mix makes available the Level and Balance controls from that page.
What Can't Be Controlled
You cannot change any parameters through KDFX that would involve a major reconfiguration
of the studio:
• Bus assignments on the Input pages
• Selecting FX presets on the FXBus pages
• Allocation on the FXBus pages
• Selecting algorithms within the FX presets
• Bus assignments on the Output page
If you want to be able to change any of these in real time, you will have to create a new studio,
link it to a different program or setup, and then call it up using a Program Change command.
In addition, there are a few parameters that can cause serious glitching if they are changed in
real time. The most common of these are the "Room Type" settings in reverb algorithms. While
there is nothing in the software to prevent you from assigning an FXMod to Room Type, you
need to be aware of the potential consequences. See Static FXMods on page 15-26.
Adjust
The Adjust setting is the starting value of the selected parameter when it is under KDFX control,
similar to the entry value of a controller in a setup. This might very well be different from the
