Using The Midi; Parameters Controllable By Means Control Change - Viscount DB-5 Operating Manual

8. USING THE MIDI

8.1 PARAMETERS CONTROLLABLE BY MEANS OF
CONTROL CHANGES
1) Volume (CC 07): regulation of the general volume of the organ and of the LOWER
manual volume.
Control Change #07 can be used to control the general volume of the organ or of the
individual sections, by means of another instrument connected by MIDI (such as a
Sequencer, Master Keyboard, etc...). The Control Change acts in a proportional manner,
i.e. high MIDI parameter values produce larger amounts of volume. Sending the
message on the three channels associated to the three sections (Upper and Lower
manuals and Bass section) allows you to control the organ's overall volume, while if
you wish to control this parameter for each individual section, send this Control Change
only on the channel associated to the section required.
2) Expression (CC 11): regulation of the expression effect.
Control Change #11H can be used to obtain the same effect as that produced by the
expression pedal on the optional pedalboard. The higher the value of the CC in question,
the higher the volume level.
3) Rotary Slow Speed (CC 14): Rotary Slow Speed value.
Control Change #14 can be used to regulate the slow speed of the Rotary effect (or
any remote rotary tone cabinet connected). The higher the value of the Control Change
in question, the higher the speed (always for the Slow speed).
4) Rotary Fast Speed (CC 15): Rotary Fast Speed value.
Control Change #14 can be used to regulate the slow speed of the Rotary effect (or
any remote rotary tone cabinet connected). The higher the value of the Control Change
in question, the higher the speed (always for the Fast speed).
5) Rotary Slow/Fast Speed (CC 12): time for transition from Slow to Fast speed.
Control Change #12 can be used to regulate the time the Rotary effect takes to change
from the Slow to the Fast rotation speed. The higher the value of the Control Change
(from 0 to 127), the longer the transition time.
6) Rotary Fast/Slow Speed (CC 13): time for transition from Slow to Fast speed.
Control Change #13 can be used to regulate the time the Rotary effect takes to change
from the Fast to the Slow rotation speed. The higher the value of the Control Change
(from 0 to 127), the longer the transition time.
7) Reverb Time (CC 102): Reverb effect fade time.
Control Change #102 can be used to regulate the time which the Reverb effect takes
to die away. The higher the value of the Control Change, the longer the fade time.
8) Reverb High Freq. – Delay Reg (CC 103): attenuation of the reverb high frequencies
– number of Delay repetitions.
