The Ribbon Configuration (RIBCFG) Page
Once you've selected a destination for the optional Ribbon controller, you can use the
parameters on the RIBCFG page to define how the ribbons respond to finger position and
pressure.

Ribbon Configuration
You can use the Ribbon as one controller, or divide it up into three smaller sections, each with its
own controller assignments. Choose a value of One Section or Three Sections for the Ribbon
Configuration parameter. With Three Sections chosen, the page changes such that you can
adjust the parameters of each section:
Position Mode (PosMode)
When you touch the Ribbon, the PC3K responds in one of two ways, depending on the setting of
the PosMode parameter. Relative means that wherever you touch the Ribbon becomes the "zero
point" for whatever the Ribbon is controlling; you won't notice any change in the sound until
you slide your finger. Relative mode tends to be the most natural for performance—just wiggle
your finger anywhere on the Ribbon to get vibrato in many factory programs and setups. You
get the same effect no matter where you do the wiggling.
