Important note about selecting a Control source
Value
To change the value of a parameter, use the cursor button to highlight the right column. In
the value column, use the Alpha Wheel or the Value buttons to enter a MIDI value from
0-127, or a value of None by scrolling below 0. You can also use the keypad function of the
Category buttons followed by the Enter button to enter a MIDI value. If you set a MIDI
Value to None by scrolling below 0, the MIDI value will be 0 until you change the value
with an assigned controller (though None will still be displayed). A value of None can also be
selected by using the keypad to type -1, followed by the Enter button.
Important note about values of "None"
7-6
When you change the control source for a parameter, the new control source
immediately sets its current value for the MIDI value of the current parameter. If the
MIDI value of the parameter was set to None before changing the control source,
changing the control source will set a new MIDI value, but the Value column for the
parameter will still display None (see Important note about values of "None".) This
can be troublesome if for example you were to change the Control Source for the
Expression parameter, you may accidentally set the MIDI Value to 0, but wouldn't
know it because None would still be displayed. Also, if you set a MIDI Value to None
by scrolling below 0, the MIDI value will be 0 until you change the value with the
assigned controller (though None will still be displayed). If you edit the parameters of
a program and suddenly can't produce any sound from the program, this may be the
cause. In this case, either set the Value for Expression to something other than None,
or use the Control Source that you set for Expression to increase the Value.
For factory programs, standard parameters like Expression (program volume),
Sustain, and Sostenuto are always set to None by default. If you change one of these
values, either on the Parameters page in the Program Editor, or with a physical
controller from Program Mode (or the Program Editor,) the same value will be used
for any other program you select, if you select another program that uses a value
of None for the same parameter. These values remain set even if you don't save the
program.
This can be useful, for example, when using an expression pedal to control program
volume.
By default, all factory programs have their Expression parameter set to a value
of None, and Expression (program volume) by default can be controlled by an
expression pedal plugged into the CC 1 Pedal jack. With an expression pedal plugged
into the CC 1 Pedal jack, you can control the volume of any factory program, but
when you select another factory program, it will have the same volume that you set
with the expression pedal in the last program. This way, the volume of your programs
will stay consistent, and can always be changed by the expression pedal. If you want
a program to have a default volume, you must set a Value other than None for the
Expression parameter.
