168 CHAPTER 18
The Virus and Sequencers
PARAMETER CONTROL VIA MIDI
Virtually all parameters of the Virus are
accessible via MIDI so that, for example,
you can manipulate knobs and buttons
and record these movements to a
sequencer. You may then route these
commands back to the Virus, which will
respond to these automated instructions
automatically. MIDI controllers have
proven effective for this external control
option since these commands – in con-
trast to system exclusive data – are trans-
ported very swiftly. Beyond that, they're
easy to edit graphically in all standard
sequencer programs.
