MIDI CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
The tangerine’s MIDI features are configured through a set of pad-specific and global
parameters.
Pad-Specific MIDI Settings
Each of the eight Pad Configuration pages include the MIDI In parameter, which lets a
MIDI controller play each pad over a specific MIDI channel. Playing each pad over a specific
MIDI channel lets you play chords and sustain multiple notes over MIDI, up to the pad’s
polyphony limit, which defined by the Poly Mode parameter,which is also in the Pad
Configuration page.
“Playing a Pad on a Pad Specific MIDI In Channel” on page 121
.
When a MIDI controller is configured to send on a pad’s MIDI In channel, it can also use its
pitch-wheel, mod-wheel, volume, and panning controls to modulate pad parameters
values.
“Modulating Pad Parameters over a Pad Specific MIDI In Channel” on page
The tangerine handles direct control of pad parameters over MIDI in a different way than it
does modulation of pad parameters. To control pad parameters directly, a MIDI controller
sends continuous controllers over the tangerine’s MIDI CC In channel, which is
independent of the individual MIDI In channels.
“Controlling Pad Parameters on the MIDI CC In Channel” on page 124
Each pad’s MIDI In setting is loaded and saved with its preset. If a pad’s MIDI In parameter
is “None” (the default for new pads), you won’t be able to play it or control it over a specific
MIDI channel. The pad can still be played from the Keys or Key Grid pages.
