Midi Controller Numbers - VHT Valvulator GP3 Preliminary Owners Manual

To write a patch to one of the USER PROGRAM BANKS, first confirm that the rear panel
SELECT/OMNI switch is set to OMNI Connect the MIDI OUT from your MIDI controller to the
MIDI IN on the back of the GP3. Next, power up the GP3 and the controller.
Now you are ready to write a patch.
1. Select a program bank/preset (1-127) on your MIDI controller, which you will use to recall
your new patch setting.
2. On the GP3, select the desired channel, and any of the 6 global functions, BRITE, FAT,
BOOST, F/X, EQ, REMOTE, that you want activated on this channel.
3. Access the MIDI LEARN feature by holding down the REMOTE button for 2 seconds. The
channel and global function LEDs will go out and then one of the following will flash on and
off: BRITE (Factory Preset Bank), FAT (User Preset Bank 1), BOOST (User Preset Bank 2),
or F/X (User Preset Bank 3).
4. Select User Bank 1, 2 or 3 in which to store your patch. The Factory Preset Bank will not
store user patch information.
5. Send the program number from the MIDI controller to the GP3 by pressing the previously
selected preset on your MIDI controller. The patch is now stored and the GP3 has
automatically exited LEARN MODE.
6. Repeat this procedure for each patch you want to create.
NOTE: Your existing program parameters remain unaffected until you change them, even
if you enter MIDI LEARN mode live "on the fly". This means that if you are playing a live
performance and you decide to add BOOST to your existing MIDI program setting, you can
during a performance, simply press the BOOST key, enter MIDI LEARN and hit your
existing MIDI program footswitch button to add that parameter to your existing MIDI
patch with NO INTERRUPTION IN THE SOUND. Conversely, you can add any
parameter "on the fly" for that specific performance without saving it, and your normal
setting will come up next time you select that patch.

MIDI CONTROLLER NUMBERS

Each of the GLOBAL functions, as well as the MUTE function, are assigned a MIDI
CONTROLLER NUMBER. There are eleven CONTROLLER NUMBER functions. The
controller numbers are stored in the GP3 memory in 2 banks. CONTROLLER BANK 1 is
numbered 20-30. CONTROLER BANK 2 is numbered 101-112. See Appendix II for Controller
number assignment information. The GP3 is shipped from the factory preset to CONTROLLER
BANK 1. To change the setting to CONTROLLER BANK 2, press and hold the REMOTE key
for 2 seconds. All of the front panel LED indicators will go out except for the MIDI PROGRAM
BANK number indicator. Press the EQ key once. The EQ LED indicator will flash on and off,
indicating tat you have entered CONTROLLER BANK 2. Press the REMOTE key to exit.
