Virtual Bank Operation
The Midi Fighter Twister makes it possible to access up to four virtual banks. In each bank
the encoders, encoder switches and side buttons* will send different MIDI Notes or CC’s.
To switch between virtual bank the side buttons must be configured to allow bank switching.
By default the middle left side button decrements the bank selection, and the middle right
side button increments the bank selection. Please refer to the side button section of this
manual for further information.
*
Side buttons can be set to not change with bank by disabling the “Bank Side Buttons”
option in the Utility.
Advanced Bank Control
It is also possible to use MIDI to read and set the currently selected bank.
When the virtual bank selection changes the Midi Fighter Twister sends a Note On to indicate
a new bank has been selected. It will also send a Note Off to indicate the previously selected
bank is no longer active. By default the bank selection notes are sent on MIDI Channel 4 but
this can be set to a different channel using the Midi Fighter Utility.
I.e. When changing from Bank 1 to Bank 2 the Midi Fighter Twister will send a
Ch4 CC0 Note O
ff
followed by a Ch4 CC1 Note On.
By sending Note On messages to the Midi Fighter Twister it is also possible to force it to
automatically change to a specific bank.
i.e. To force a change to Bank 2 send a Ch4 CC1 Note on
