MIDI Messages
Mod Wheel (Modulation)
The V150/V110 recognizes Mod Wheel (MIDI Controller 1) messages, which affect different
sounds in different ways (by adding vibrato, for example). By default, Slider A sends Mod
Wheel messages to the V150/V110 for many sounds.
Volume
The V150/V110 recognizes MIDI Volume (Controller 7) messages. Moving the Sound Levels
sliders causes the V150/V110 to send Volume messages on each of the four MIDI channels
corresponding to the Main, Layer, Split, and SplitLayer zones.
Pan
The V150/V110 recognizes MIDI Pan (Controller 10) messages, which adjusts the location of the
sound within the stereo field (from left to right). A value of 0 is full left, 64 is centered, and 127 is
full right.
Expression
The V150/V110 sends and receives MIDI Expression (Controller 11) messages, which regulate
the volume of V150/V110 sounds. By default, this is controlled by the V150/V110's Expression
pedal, which enables you to vary the volume from nothing up to the volume set by the MIDI
Volume level.
Sustain, Sostenuto, and Soft Pedals
These messages are named for the corresponding pedals on many acoustic pianos: Sustain
allows all notes to continue sounding until they fade out or the Sustain message ends; Sostenuto
is similar, but affects only the notes whose keys were held down when the Sostenuto message
began; Soft reduces the volume of all notes until the message ends.
By default, the V150/V110's right foot pedal sends Sustain (MIDI Controller 64), the center
pedal sends Sostenuto (MIDI Controller 66), and the left pedal sends Soft (MIDI Controller 67).
Reverb and Effects
Adjusting the wet/dry mix of the Reverb with the Reverb Level knob sends a Controller 91
message to the V150/V110 (and to the MIDI Out port). The value of the message depends on the
percentage of the wet/dry mix: 0 for a fully dry signal (0% wet, no reverb); 127 for full effect
(100% wet).
Adjusting the wet/dry mix of the Effects with the Effects Level knob works the same way, using
Controller 93.
The V150/V110 also recognizes Controllers 91 and 93 if received from an external MIDI source
Controller 94 controls the effects routing. The values of this message select effects routing as
follows:
0–31
32–63
64–95
96–127
4-8
No Reverb or Effects
Effects on, reverb off
