Pedals calibration (SHOES CALIBRATION function)
When connecting pedals to PEDALS [EXPR.] and [CRESC.] it might be useful to perform a calibration.
To recall the calibration function, follow this procedure:
1. in the main video page press the [MENU/ENTER] button,
2. select the UTILITY field,
3. select the SHOES CALIBRATION field,
4. in the calibration screen the following fields are displayed:
-
[pedal name] Acquired: name and value of the pedal currently under
calibration.
-
Actual Max: maximum value stored in memory.
-
Actual Min: minimum value stored in memory.
ACTUAL MIN and ACTUAL MAX will be shown only when the pedal is,
respectively, either at minimum or maximum position.
5. set the pedal into maximum or minimum position and press [MENU/ENTER],
6. place the pedal in the opposite position (from maximum to minimum or vice versa) and press [MENU/ENTER].
7. Perform this operation on all connected pedals. When the operation is complete, press [EXIT] to store the
calibration.
NOTE
The system stores the MIN and MAX values slightly higher and lower than those actually read. This is done
to ensure that the minimum and maximum position is always reached.
Operating mode of the Expression and Crescendo pedals and the MIDI pedalboard
(SHOES / PEDALBOARD function)
For a correct operation of a MIDI pedalboard connected to the MIDI [IN] port, it is necessary to inform the
instrument about the MIDI channel in which the notes for the Pedal section are received. In this condition the
received notes are transposed according to the setting of the TRANSPOSER parameter of the TUNING screen
(page 15), they are not played if the Automatic Pedal is active, the velocity is recalculated according to the setting
selected in the KEYBOARD VELOCITY screen (page 23), and the notes are
forwarded on the MIDI [OUT] port if you want to send to an external MIDI device.
In addition to this, the instrument allows you to control the Expression and
Crescendo using volume-type pedals connected to the rear panel PEDALS
[EXPR.] and [CRESC.] connectors or by receiving the MIDI message Control
Change n.11 (Expression), transmitted from an external unit, such as an
expression pedal of a MIDI pedalboard. On this screen, you can set the type of
pedals you are using or on which MIDI channel the CC11 is received on.
To set these functions, select the SHOES / PEDALBOARD field in the UTILITY
menu.
The settings which can be made are:
Parameter name
Pedalboard
Crescendo
Expression
Press [EXIT] to confirm the settings. The display will now show the SHOES CALIBRATION screen (described
above) to calibrate the pedals if you are using those connected to the PEDALS jack connector.
