Sysex dump tempo: Menu page 15
Via system exclusive data, the memory of the POLYMORPH can be saved over MIDI to an external
device. The working speed of different types of MIDI equipment differs. Some choke when too
much MIDI data is being received at once at the input. That is why the POLYMORPH can be
adapted to a MIDI filer, external sequencer, computer etc. The dump speed has three transfer
speeds to make these devices more compatible.
The dump speed can be adapted on menu page 15 of the system menu.
Find the best compromise between data safety and transfer speed. Fast equipment like the Style
Drive can dump without a problem at fast speed.
Control (regulator) characteristics: Menu pages 16-17
On menu pages 16 and 17 you can change the behaviour of the physical controls on the
POLYMORPH top panel. Since the controls are not motorized spin to a new value automatically,
recalling a new setting and editing it, could result in a drastic jump in actual value relative to the
knobs former position. For example, when the filter cutoff frequency is programmed with a value
of 20, the control is on 127, the cutoff frequency jumps to the higher value, as soon as the control
is turned. To avoid this, there are different strategies. The following possibilities are built-in to the
POLYMORPH:
Jump->
Jumps direct to the control adjustment, if it changes. This adjustment is equal to
the example with the filter cutoff frequency.
Snap->
You have to move the control to the programmed value of the parameter before
any changes to the value can be made.
Relative->
This is the most smart mode. The area to the left and right of the actual control
position is stretched or compressed dynamically. This way the control reacts
instantly without any "jumps".
When you turn a control pot on the POLYMORPH, the corresponding parameter with the value is
shown in the display. You can turn off this information displayed:
In the position "OFF" this information will no longer be displayed.
