Settings for CV Outputs
CV Output 1 is always Pitch Out and it is not possible to use it for anything else.
CV Outputs 2-5 can be programmed to react to MIDI Controllers or a number of pre-defined
functions. These functions are listed below and in Table 1:
1. MIDI Control Change. The CV function parameter is set to 0-119 which corresponds to
controller #0-119. When a CV output is programmed for a Controller only 7-bit values
are handled, i.e. if both Coarse and Fine messages are received for the controller only
the portion that has been programmed is used. Controllers that are used for parameter
programming or other predefined functions cannot be used for a CV output – this
applies to RPN/NRPN controllers, Data Entry controllers and Hold/Legato pedal
controllers. When a CV output is programmed for a controller the CV Range parameter
sensitivity is between 0% - 200%.
2. Note-On Velocity: If the CV Function parameter is set to 121 the CV output produces a value
corresponding to Note-On Velocity for notes that are played. The CV Range parameter determines
sensitivity between 0% - 200%.
3. Accent: If the CV Function parameter is set to 123 the CV output goes high = 5V if the Note-On
velocity reaches a certain value. The CV Range parameter determines the value at which the output
goes high and can be 0-127.
4. Key Aftertouch: If the CV Function parameter is set to 124 the CV output produces a value
corresponding to Key Aftertouch messages for notes that are played. The CV Range parameter
determines sensitivity between 0% - 200%.
5. Note-Off Velocity: If the CV Function parameter is set to 125 the CV output produces a value
corresponding to Note-Off Velocity for notes that are released. The CV Range parameter determines
sensitivity between 0% - 200%.
6. Channel Aftertouch. If the CV Function parameter is set to 126 the CV output produces a value
corresponding to Channel Aftertouch. The CV Range parameter determines sensitivity between
0% - 200%.
7. Unused: If the CV Function parameter is set to 120, 122 or 127 the CV output is blocked and will not
react to any messages. The CV output is set to a constant 0V.
See Table 1 for further details.
CV Output 6 is always Pitch Wheel Out and it is not possible to use it for anything else. Pitch
Wheel Range can be set either by changing the parameter as described below or by RPN message
Pitch Bend Range, 0x0000.
Setting Parameters
Parameters for the CV outputs are set by NRPN messages as follows:
·
Initialize the NRPN Coarse part to 0.
·
Select the parameter by the NRPN Fine part. See Table 1 for details.
·
Send a Data Entry Coarse message with the required value. Since parameters are always between
0-127 the Data Entry Fine message is not needed.
The NRPN Coarse and Fine values will be retained until another NRPN or RPN message is
received or until the S1 is turned off.
Note: When done with parameter changes NRPN Coarse and Fine should be set to 0x7f,
(NRPN/RPN zero value). This is to avoid changing the parameters unintentionally.
Example 1:
The CV2 Function is programmed for Note-On Velocity as default. To change this to react instead
to the Foot Controller (#04) do the following:
·
Send an NRPN Coarse (#99) message with value 0.
·
Send an NRPN Fine (#98) message with value 03 to select the CV2 Function parameter.
·
Send a Data Entry Coarse (#06) message with value 04 to set the new function.
