Try Out The Controller Functions
The experiments described in this section provide
an opportunity to discover just how controller
functions like pressure and embouchure affect the sound.
NOTES
For the following experiments it is assumed that
MODULATION WHEEL 2 is set to the same control number
as the breath controller (the initial "EXAMPLE:ALL" file
setting). If the MODULATION WHEEL 2 control change
number has been changed for any reason, it should be
reset to the initial value for these experiments.
