9.1.5.1. Knob Acceleration
There are four response curves for the encoders:
Slow (Off): The encoders transmit every value. It takes many turns of an encoder
•
to move from minimum to maximum. Use this when greater precision is desired.
Medium: When turned quickly, the encoders will skip a few values. It takes fewer
•
turns of an encoder to move from minimum to maximum.
Fast: When turned quickly, the encoders will skip a few more values. It may
•
take as few as one-and-a-half turns of an encoder to move from minimum to
maximum.
9.1.5.2. Aftertouch Curve
Linear, Exponential and Logarithmic describe the mathematical shape of the pressure-
voltage curve that determines the amplitude of the voltage transmitted while you exert
pressure on a key you are holding at the bottom of its vertical travel.
In Linear mode, the voltage is directly proportional to the pressure. In Exponential mode,
the voltage initially increases rapidly as the pressure increases, but the rate of increase
gradually decreases as the pressure increases further. In Logarithmic mode, the converse is
true: the voltage initially increases slowly as the pressure increases, but the rate of increase
accelerates as the pressure increases further. When applied to control envelope shapes,
voltage-controlled filters (VCFs) and voltage-controlled amplifiers (VCAs), the different
curves give a very different responsiveness to aftertouch (also known as channel pressure).
9.1.5.3. Velocity Curve
By changing the velocity-voltage curve, you determine the way a sound characteristic such
as volume, tone or timbre responds to the speed or force with which you press a key. See
Aftertouch Curve above for the characteristics of each curve.
9.1.5.4. Transport Send
This setting allows you to set whether and how the KeyStep Pro will transmit transport
commands such as Stop, Rec and Play. It can either be OFF, MCC (meaning that the KeyStep
Pro will use the setting currently stored in the MIDI Control Center) or use the current
realtime setting.
9.1.5.5. Transport Receive
This setting allows you to set whether and how the KeyStep Pro will respond to transport
commands it receives over MIDI. It can either be OFF, MCC (meaning that the KeyStep Pro
will use the setting currently stored in the MIDI Control Center) or use the current realtime
setting.
9.1.5.6. Clock Send
Set whether the KeyStep Pro will transmit clock signals to external MIDI devices.
