Continuous Controller Window Buttons

The CC Windows (1-5) offer additional voice switching and crossfading possibilities
using MIDI Continuous Controller messages. Unlike the Realtime window, the CC
crossfades and cross-switches occur only at Note-on time. They cannot be continu-
ously swept during the note. These controls are designed to be used to switch and fade
voices during your performance. You can use the CC windows to switch between drum
sets, or bring in accent samples.
The CC assignments are easy to use because you can complete the entire patch from this
window. The list of control sources is accessed by clicking on the button
of the Assignment screen. The following control sources are available: Mod Wheel,
Pressure, Pedal, MIDI A-P, Footswitch 1 & 2, Flip-Flop Footswitch 1 & 2, Thumbswitch
and Flip-Flop Thumbswitch.
To Cross-switch Two Voices:
In order to cross-switch voices, they must first be assigned to the same key range. In
1.
the Key Window, set the high and low key range of the voices so that they
completely overlap.
Set up a basic cross-switch in one of the CC Windows as shown above. For this
2.
example, we'll use two voices. This will cause voice 1 to sound whenever the CC
value is in the range of 0-63 and voice 2 to sound whenever the CC value is in the
range of 64-127.
