After you've selected a Parameter Control Knob, you can set the parameter range that the
MIDI CC will control by setting minimum and maximum parameter values.
When a Parameter Control Knob designator is displayed (KB0... KB9), pressing the Left
Footswitch will display [MIN VAL]. Turn the associated Parameter Control Knob to set the
minimum value. For example, if KB0 was selected, turn the Mix Control Knob to set the
minimum value. The Billboard displays the knob value while you're turning the selected
parameter knob and times out to display the selected [MIN VAL] when the knob is idle.
Push the Left Footswitch again to set the maximum value for the selected Parameter Control
Knob. The Billboard will display [MAX VAL]. Turn the associated parameter knob to adjust the
maximum value. The Billboard displays the knob value while you're turning the selected
parameter knob and times out to display the selected [MAX VAL] when the knob is idle.
MIDI CCs send values from 0 to 127. The minimum parameter value will be set when the
MIDI CC sends a 0 and the maximum parameter value will be set when the MIDI CC sends
127. MIDI CC values between 0 and 127 are mapped to the selected parameter range.
The parameters controlled in this mode are system-wide and will apply to all Effects and
Presets.
For example, if Looper was running when you entered System Mode, the Xnob would be
used to select between Play Once and Play Loop. Using RCV CTL you could assign a MIDI
Continuous Controller to Xnob (KB6). CC message values less than 64 will select Play Once
and message values 64 or greater will select Play Loop. If VintageDelay is then loaded, the
Xnob parameter sets the amount of "saturation." In this case, the MIDI CC value will control
the amount of saturation.
Note: You can set the minimum value to be greater than the maximum value. When you do
so, when the MIDI CC's sends an increasing value, the parameter value will decrease.
Note: You can assign more than one external controller to any parameter. For example, you
can use MIDI CC10 to vary Delay Time A from 0 ms to 1270 ms with 10 ms resolution and
MIDI CC11 to vary Delay Time A from 0 ms to 127 ms with 1 ms resolution.
Note: While it is possible to assign more than one external controller to any parameter, doing
so is likely to cause confusion and is not recommended. Keep in mind that, if you have
previously assigned a MIDI CC to a control destination, you may want to clear the assignment
before setting up a new assignment. To clear, select the destination (parameter) and select
the source (MIDI CC) as [---].
To Setup the External Control Source
Press the Right Footswitch to select the external control source field for editing. There are two
ways to select an external control source - Manual Select or Learn Mode.
