QS6.1 Reference Manual
TRANSMITTING MIDI VOLUME AND PANNING
Each Channel in a Mix can transmit its volume and panning settings via MIDI. For each
channel on which you wish to transmit this data, MIDI Out must be set to ON and MIDI
Input and Keyboard must be set to OFF (as explained in the KEYBOARD/MIDI section on
page 102). Also, the Keyboard mode must be NORMAL and the MIDI Program Select
parameter must be set to ON (Global Edit Mode, Pages 6 and 14).
If a channel is set up this way:
¥
whenever a Mix is recalled (via the front panel or via MIDI), volume and panning
information will be transmitted for that Channel;
¥
whenever that ChannelÕs ÒLevelÓ parameter is edited, volume information will be
transmitted as Controller #7 on that Channel;
¥
whenever that ChannelÕs ÒPanÓ parameter is edited, panning information will be
transmitted as controller #10 on that Channel. However, panning information will
not
be
sent if the Channel's "Pan" parameter is set to PROG.
The seven pan positions in a Mix send the following controller #10 values:
Mix Pan value
CC#10 value

Conversely, if you want to change the panning of a QS6.1 Program via MIDI, here is
what you'll get if you transmit a given controller #10 value:
