Controller Hook Function - Yamaha VP-1 Owner's Manual

Controller Hook Function

When you press a SCENE button or move the SCENE CONTROLLER, you
effectively change most or all of the controller settings. But the controllers themselves
do not move. This means that a discrepancy arises between the internal controller
settings and the actual controller positions.
You use the Controller Hook function to determine the point at which physical
controllers become effective when such a discrepancy exists. (
Controller Hook = OFF
If Controller Hook is OFF, physical controllers become effective as soon as they are
moved. In other words, moving a controller just a slight amount causes an immediate
jump from the internal controller setting to the physical controller setting. This can
cause a sudden (and in some cases jarring) change in sound. Note also that vibration
from the keyboard or speaker may sometimes cause a controller to move on its own; if
Controller Hook is OFF, this slight unintentional movement can cause a dramatic
change in sound.
Controller Hook = ON
If Controller Hook is ON, the physical controller does not becomes effective until it
matches the "position" of the internal controller. This eliminates the drastic sound
changes that can occur when Controller Hook is set OFF. For most applications you
will probably want to leave the setting ON.
FYI
• The Controller Hook setting also affects Quick Edit operation. (
• If you are using both a FOOT CONTROLLER and the SCENE CONTROLLER (slider) for
scene control, the one that was moved last is the one that is effective.
