Load Preset Programs; Midi Functions; Select Midi Channel - Ada MP-1 Owner's Manual

Follow this general procedure:
1 If you are using an effect with only one level control, set your effects
device to unity gain. You can test for unity gain by connecting the
EFFECTS SEND to your effect input, and running the effect output
directly to your amp. Adjust the level on your effects device so that
you have the same volume when the effect is switched in or out.
2 Set the EFFECTS LOOP LEVEL at the highest possible setting
without clipping the effect's input.
3 If you are using a line level effect with two level controls, set your
EFFECTS LOOP LEVEL control to 1 o'clock (0 dB gain). Adjust the
input level on your effect to the highest possible setting without
clipping, and set the output level control on your effect to achieve
unity gain in your effect. You can test for unity gain as described in
step 1.
4 Check for distortion and excess noise. If your effect is clipping, turn
your EFFECTS LOOP LEVEL control counterclockwise.

3.6 LOAD PRESET PROGRAMS

There are 29 factory preset programs (1-29) that can be loaded
into the internal program memory via the front panel. These can be
loaded at one time, or they can be brought into the MP-1's working
register one at a time (Level 2 software). To load all 29 programs, press
the STORE button. The STORE button will blink. Press BANK and, while
holding it down, press 1. Display reads "LP" (Load Programs). Programs
1 thru 29 will be erased and overwritten by the preset programs.
Reference section 6.0 MEMORY PRESET SETTINGS for a description
of factory presets. To load just one program (Level 2 sofware), press
BANK and while holding it down, press CHORUS RATE. "P" will be
displayed, indicating that a preset is being recalled. Now select the
preset you want by using ∧∨. You may use or edit this program without
erasing any of your own programs, or you may save it by using the
STORE sequence.

4.0 MIDI FUNCTIONS

The MP-1 has MIDI In, Out and Thru and recognizes program
change, SYSTEM Exclusive and MIDI Time Code.
To send and receive MIDI data, you must select a MIDI channel.
You have the option of selecting an individual MIDI channel, (1-16), or
you can send or receive on all 16 MIDI channels (OMNI) or you can turn
MIDI off.
The MP-1 has 128 storage registers for programs. These are
referred to as "internal memory". The MP-1 allows you to "map" MIDI
program numbers received via MIDI IN to any "internal memory"
numbers you choose. For example, if you have a MIDI foot controller
connected to the MP-1, sending program change 11, the MP-1 could
"map" the reception of program 11 to memory 22 or any memory
location from 1 thru 128 in the MP-1. This gives you the potential of
"mapping" more than one MIDI program command to the same MP-1
memory number. Other MIDI devices without this feature limit you to a
one-to-one relationship, e.g., when you change to program 11 on your
foot controller, the receiving device can change only to program 11.
When the PRGM or MEM buttons are in use and their
corresponding LED is flashing, the MIDI interface is temporarily
disabled. If the MP-1 is left with the PRGM button active, the MP-1 will
display program numbers when they are received instead of internal
memory numbers.
The external MIDI PRGM number range is from 1-128. The
internal MEM number range is from 1-128.

SELECT MIDI CHANNEL

1 Press MIDI CHNL. To select a number from 1 thru 16, ALL (OMNI),
or MIDI OFF, use the ∧∨ buttons to make your selection. When the
display reads "ALL", the MP-1 will talk and listen to all 16 MIDI
channels simultaneously. When the display reads "OFF", the MP-1
will not talk or listen to any MIDI channel. Be sure to set the MIDI
device connected to the MP-1 to the same MIDI channel as the
MP-1. (If you do not know the MIDI channel being sent by the device
preceeding the MP-1, set to ALL).
2 After selection has been made, press MIDI CHNL to save and exit.
