Controlling Effects - Korg PS60 Parameter Manual

Appendices
Controlling portamento
Portamento time (CC#05) [Bn, 05, vv]
If you assign the above CC# to an assignable pedal on the
PS60 and use it, portamento time messages will be transmit‐
ted, changing the time over which the portamento function
changes the pitch.
When this message is received, the result will be the same as
when the controller is used.
Portamento switch (CC#65) [Bn, 41, vv]
When the above CC# is assigned to the Assignable Switch,
using that switch will transmit vv=127 [7F] for ON or vv=0
[00] for OFF, and the portamento effect will be switched on/
off. When this message is received, the result will be the
same as when the controller is used. (vv of 63 [3F] or less
will be OFF, and 64 [40] or greater will be ON.)
• Transmission and reception of this message can be
turned on/off for each timbre.
Controlling volume
Volume (CC#07) [Bn, 07, vv]
When the above CC# is assigned to the Assignable Pedal is
selected, using that controller will transmit Volume mes‐
sages, and the volume will change. When this message is
received, the result will be the same as when the controller
is used.
Expression (CC#11) [Bn, 0B, vv]
When the CC# above is assigned to the Assignable Pedal
selected, operating that controller will transmit Expression
messages, and the volume will change. When this message
is received, the result will be the same as when the control‐
ler is used.
The volume of the PS60 is determined by multiplying the
value of the Volume message with the value of the Expres‐
sion message.
If adjusting the Volume message does not increase the vol‐
ume as you expect, or if there is no sound, transmit MIDI
messages from an external device to reset the value of the
Expression message (set vv to 127).
• In Performance, Volume messages will be transmitted by
each timbre whose "Status" is EXT or EX2 when you re‐
select the performance.
By using the universal exclusive Master Volume message,
you can adjust the overall volume without changing the vol‐
ume balance between timbres. (Please see "About system
exclusive messages" on page 138.)

Controlling pan (stereo position)
Pan (CC#10) [Bn, 0A, vv]
(vv: value, where 00 is far left, 64 is center, and 127 is far
right)
When the above CC# is assigned to the Assignable Pedal is
selected, using that controller will transmit Pan messages,
and the panning will change. When this message is
received, the result will be the same as when the controller
is used.
Post insert effect pan (CC#08) [Bn, 08, vv]
(vv: value, where 00 is far left, 64 is center, and 127 is far
right)
When the above CC# is assigned to the Assignable Pedal is
selected, using that controller will transmit Post Insert Effect
Panpot messages, and the panning of the sound following
the insert effect will change. When this message is received,
the result will be the same as when the controller is used.
Programs of the Strings category support only the panpot
(CC#10) message.

Controlling effects

Effect control 1 (CC#12) [Bn, 0C, vv]
Effect control 2 (CC#13) [Bn, 0D, vv]
When the above CC# is assigned to the Assignable Pedal is
selected, using that controller will transmit Effect Control 1/
2 messages, and the specified dynamic modulation will be
controlled. When this message is received, the result will be
the same as when the controller is used.
Although various types of control change can be selected as
dynamic modulation sources, Effect Control 1 (CC#12) and
2 (CC#13) are dedicated for dynamic modulation.
Effect 1 depth (Send 2) (CC#91) [Bn, 5B, vv]
Effect 3 depth (Send 1) (CC#93) [Bn, 5D, vv]
When the CC# above is assigned to the Assignable Pedal,
using that controller will transmit Effect 1 Depth (Send 2) or
Effect 3 Depth (Send 1) messages, and the send level 1 or 2
to the master effects MFX1 or MFX2 will be controlled
respectively. When this message is received, the result will
be the same as when the controller is used.
On the corresponding MIDI channels, this will simultane‐
ously control the timbre setting as well as the setting follow‐
ing the Insert Effect.
Effect 2 depth (IFX1–5 on/off) (CC#92) [Bn, 5C, vv]
Effect 4 depth (MFX1, 2 on/off) (CC#94) [Bn, 5E, vv]
Programs of the Strings category support only the panpot
(CC#10) message.
Separately from the effect on/off settings within a program
or performance, you can use the Effect SW setting to turn off
insert effects IFXs and master effects MFX1 and MFX2.
("Effect SW" on page 49 of the Owner's manual)
Turning the ʺAll IFXsʺ or ʺMFX1&2 Offʺ settings Off will
transmit this message with a value of vv=0 [00], and turning
them On will transmit a value of vv=127 [7F]. When you
turn this Off, all of the corresponding effects will turn off.
When you turn this On, the on/off settings of the program or
performance will apply. The same applies to reception. (vv
of 00 is off, and 01 or greater is the original setting.) These
messages are transmitted/received on the global MIDI chan‐
nel.
These messages are defined simply for use in adjusting the
effect levels, and may not have the same function on
another instrument connected to the PS60.
