Selecting Common Controllers

These settings allow you to choose four MIDI controllers for global use when controlling the parameters of any Patch or Performance. The settings
in each Patch or Performance will determine whether the two controllers you choose here will actually be used. In each Patch or Performance, you
will also need to specify the parameters to be controlled.
Parameter
CONTROL
Sys Ctrl Src1–4 System Control
Source 1–4
Value Description
1–10 This adjusts the contrast/brightness of the display. Higher values will make the characters darker.
LAST-ST, Sets the condition of the XV-5050 when its power is turned on.
DEFAULT
LAST-ST: The XV-5050 will power up exactly as it was when it was turned off.
DEFAULT: The XV-5050 will be ready to play Patch "US:001."
0–127 Adjusts the volume of the entire XV-5050.
INT, MIDI, Specifies the tempo clock of the system.
USB
INT: The internal clock
MIDI: An external clock received via MIDI IN connector
USB: An external clock received via USB connector
20–250 Sets the system tempo. * When Clock Source is set to "MIDI" or "USB," the tempo will synchronize to the
clock messages received from an external device, so the tempo value will be ignored.
MIX, MIX: Signals that are set to be output from jacks other than the A (MIX) OUTPUT jacks are mixed and output
PARALEL from the A (MIX) OUTPUT jacks.
This setting allows you to quickly route everything through headphones when you are creating sounds,
or to combine all of your sounds into two outputs when sending the XV-5050's signal to a mixer that has
only two channels. When MIX is selected, sound routed to the INDIVIDUAL OUTPUT 3 jack is sent to the
left A (MIX) OUTPUT jack, and sound routed to the INDIVIDUAL OUTPUT 4 jack are sent to the right A
(MIX) OUTPUT jack.
PARALEL: Sounds are routed to output jacks according to their output settings.
OFF, ON This specifies whether you want the notes that are sounding to remain (ON) or turn off (OFF) when you select
a new Patch or Rhythm Set in Patch mode. In addition, when "ON" is selected, the Volume and Pan data, and
the Key Mode and other settings received via MIDI (CC 5, 7, 10, 65, 68, 71–74, RPN 0, 1, 2, MONO ON, POLY
ON) are passed on.
PANEL, You can set whether you'll be able to select percussion instruments for editing only by pressing the XV-5050's
PNL&MIDI front-panel buttons or also by pressing keys on a connected MIDI keyboard.
PANEL: Percussion instrument sounds can be selected only by using the XV-5050's TONE SELECT [1]–[4].
PNL&MIDI: Percussion instrument sounds can be selected using the XV-5050's TONE SELECT [1]–[4] and
by pressing a key on a connected MIDI keyboard.
-12, -6, 0, +6, This adjusts the output gain from the XV-5050's Analog Out and Digital Out. When, for example, there are
+12 dB relatively few voices being sounded, boosting the output gain can let you attain the most suitable output level
for recording and other purposes.
