The pitch shifter can be used in conjunction with the programmable buttons on the MIDIBoard to create buttons that shift the
pitch up or down in semitones. For example, programming a button to send 64 when OFF and 76 (i.e., 64+12) when ON
creates an "octave up" switch.
Transpose Control
The transposer is a bidirectional control which transposes all notes on a particular channel. The value of the transpose
control is additively combined with the Master Transpose and Layer Transpose. Note that transposition is a static effect.
Varying the control will not effect notes that have already started.
Timbre Shift Control
The timbre shift control is used to scale the layer transpose value. Its effect can be selectively enabled at the layer level.
Note that timbre shift is only effective at the start of a note.
Balance Control
The balance control is a bidirectional controller used to scale the balance adjustment in the sound layer. Its effect can be
selectively enabled at the layer level. This control is only effective at the start of a note.
The balance control can be used to change the level between two sound layer give one layer a positive balance adjustment
and the other a negative value. Enable the balance control for both. When the control is at the midpoint, both layers will be
equally loud. Moving the control above or below center will increase the loudness of one layer and decrease the loudness of
the other.
Pressure Control
The pressure control allows any continuous controller to act like polyphonic key pressure. The default assignment for the
pressure control is monophonic channel pressure, which means that mono channel pressure acts like polyphonic key pressure.
Expression Control
The expression control is a bidirectional controller which converts the incoming MIDI value from -64 to +63. This value
gets added to the key velocity value after the velocity map.
You might use this control with a pedal, to simulate touch sensitivity for a non-touch sensitive keyboard.
Volume Control
This is a continuous controller which adjusts volume from 0 dB (MIDI value 128) to -48 dB (MIDI value 0).
