X1 Functions
This key accesses two miscellaneous functions. These are global functions which
affect all patches. For example, if Pedal is set to Sus, it will remain so for all patches.
•
Mid
- Out or Thru - When
Out
is selected, the MIDI output transmits local
data from the keyboard and knobs. When
Thru
is selected, the MIDI
output transmits data from the host application.
•
PEd
- Selects between a footswitch (SuS) or a continuous footpedal (ctL)

Mid
The X Board can function as a MIDI interface between your computer applications
and external MIDI gear. When set to
Thru
, MIDI data from your computer appli-
cation is transmitted on the X Board’s MIDI output jack. When
Out
is selected, the
MIDI output transmits local data from the keyboard and knobs.
X Board keyboard and controller data is
NOT transmitted
from the MIDI output
when this function is set to
Thru
.
(Keyboard/Controller data is always sent via USB.)
Pedal
This function sets up the Footswitch / Footpedal input to accept a switch or a
variable pedal control input.
•
SuS
= Sustain or footswitch input. In this mode, the X Board automatically
senses the footswitch polarity on power up (either normally-open, or
normally-closed). Because of the automatic sensing feature, you should not
hold down the footswitch during power up or the switch action will be
reversed.
•
ctL
= Control Pedal.
The X Board accepts control pedals wired as shown in the pdf
manual.
