Selecting program/combination banks
Bank select (CC#00, CC#32)
Technically, Bank Select is a controller. In practice, however,
it is a component of Program Change. For more information,
please see "Program Change/Bank Select" on page 392)
Using the joystick to apply modulation
Modulation 1 depth (CC#01) [Bn, 01, vv]
When you move the M50's joystick in the +Y direction
(Vertical upward), Modulation 1 Depth messages will be
transmitted. When these messages are received, the same
effect will be applied as when the M50's joystick is operated.
Normally this will apply a vibrato effect (pitch LFO).
• In Combination and Sequencer modes, transmission/
reception can be turned on/off for each timbre/track
(Enable JS+Y Combi/Seq 5–1–3(4)c).
Modulation 2 depth (CC#02) [Bn, 02, vv]
When you move the M50's joystick in the –Y direction
(Vertical downward), Modulation 2 Depth messages will be
transmitted. When these messages are received, the same
effect will be applied as when the M50's joystick is operated.
Normally this will apply a wah effect (filter LFO).
• In Combination and Sequencer modes, transmission/
reception can be turned on/off for each timbre/track
(Enable JS–Y Combi/Seq 5–1–3(4)c).
Other manufacturers use this message for other purposes
(e.g., breath controller, etc.)
Controlling portamento
Portamento time (CC#05) [Bn, 05, vv]
If you assign the above CC# to an Assignable Pedal or knobs
1–4 when the control surface Realtime Control B mode is
selected, rotating that knob will transmit Portamento Time
messages, and will modify the speed at which the
portamento pitch changes. When this message is received,
the result will be the same as when the controller is
operated.
Portamento switch (CC#65) [Bn, 41, vv]
When the above CC# is assigned to SW1, SW2 or the
Assignable Switch, operating 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 operated. (vv of 63 [3F] or less will be OFF, and
64 [40] or greater will be ON.) (See "SW1/2 Assignments"
on page 382)
• In Combination and Sequencer modes, transmission/
reception of this message can be turned on/off
independently for each timbre/track (Enable
Portamento SW Combi 5–1–1(2)c/Seq 3–1a).
• In Sequencer mode, portamento time/switch messages
will be transmitted by each track whose Status is BTH,
EXT, or EX2 when you set Portamento (Seq 3–3(4)c), re-
select a song or SMF, or return to the beginning of a
measure. For more information, please see "Portamento"
on page 153.
Controlling volume
Volume (CC#07) [Bn, 07, vv]
When the above CC# is assigned to the Assignable Pedal or
knobs 1–4 when the control surface Realtime Control B
mode is selected, operating that controller will transmit
Volume messages, and the volume will change. When this
394
message is received, the result will be the same as when the
controller is operated.
Expression (CC#11) [Bn, 0B, vv]
When the above CC# is assigned to the Assignable Pedal or
knobs 1–4 when the control surface Realtime Control B
mode is 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 controller is operated.
The volume of the M50 is determined by multiplying the
value of the Volume message with the value of the
Expression message.
If adjusting the Volume message does not increase the
volume 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).
Note: In Sequencer mode, this will be reset when the
Location of the song is moved to 001:01.000.
• In Combination mode, Volume messages will be
transmitted by each timbre whose Status is EXT or EX2
when you re-select the combination.
• When you change the Volume setting (Seq 0–1–3(4)b) in
Sequencer mode, or when you re-select the song or
return to the beginning of the song in Sequencer mode,
volume messages will be transmitted by each track
whose Status is BTH, EXT, or EX2. See Global P1: MIDI
"Track MIDI Out" on page 222.
Note: Regardless of the Status settings, re-selecting a song,
or returning to the beginning will reset the internal Volume
value to the value specified by each track (the starting
settings), and will reset the Expression value to the
maximum.
Note: This message can be used to control the volume of
each MIDI track. Normally, you will include a Volume
message in the MIDI track setting data (the settings at the
beginning of the track) to set the initial volume, and use
Expression to create changes in dynamics as the song
progresses.
By using the universal exclusive Master Volume message,
you can adjust the overall volume without changing the
volume balance between timbres or tracks. ("About system
exclusive messages" on page 398)
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 or
knobs 1–4 when the control surface Realtime Control B
mode is selected, operating 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 operated.
• When you set the Pan (Seq 0–1–3(4)b) in Sequencer
mode, or when you re-select the song or return to the
beginning of the measure in Sequencer mode, Panpot
messages (except for RND) will be transmitted by each
track whose Status is BTH, EXT, or EX2. See "Pan" on
page 133, Global P1: MIDI "Track MIDI Out" on
page 222.
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 or
knobs 1–4 when the control surface Realtime Control B
mode is selected, operating that controller will transmit Post
