Multi-Effect Control
In order to control the multi-effect's volume or delay time from an external MIDI device, you would normally need to transmit system exclusive
messages (MIDI messages that are specific to the JUNO-STAGE). However, system exclusive messages are more complex to set up, and require a
larger amount of data to be transmitted.
For this reason, the JUNO-STAGE allows you to use control changes and other common MIDI messages to control the most important multi-effect
parameters.
For example, you might use the pitch bend lever to control the degree of distortion, or use keyboard touch to change the delay time. The parameters
that can be controlled in this way are predetermined for each type of multi-effect; such parameters are indicated by a "#" in the parameter lists in
"Multi-Effects Parameters (MFX1–3, MFX)" (p. 163).
"Multi-effect control" is the capability of using MIDI messages in this way to control multi-effect parameters in real time. You can specify up to four
multi-effect control assignments for each MFX 1–3.
In order to use multi-effect control, you'll need to specify which MIDI message (Source) will control which parameter (Destination) by what amount
(Sens).
As a substitute for multi-effect control, you can also use matrix control (p. 110) to control important multi-effect parameters in real time.

fig.
In the MFX screen (p. 84) (or the MFX STRUCTURE screen (p. 86), press [4 (CTRL)] if
you're in Patch mode or [6 (CTRL)] if you're in Performance mode. The MFX CTRL
screen will appear.
Use the cursor buttons to move the cursor to the parameter you want to edit, and use
the VALUE dial or [DEC] [INC] to specify the value.
In Performance mode, pressing [6 (CTRL)] one or more times in the MFX CTRL screen
allows you to select the multi-effect (MFX1, MFX2, or MFX3) that you want to edit.
