13. The next display says:
Real-time parameters (pitch, filter cutoff, level, LFO to pitch modulation index, etc.) can be assigned
to MIDI control source A (see Preset Definition 9 for more information about control sources). You
may then assign each MIDI control source to correspond to specific MlDl controller on another
synthesizer.
Example: Suppose a second MIDI unit’s vibrato controller is assigned to MIDI control number 01,
and that MIDI control source A on Emax controls the filter cutoff frequency. Selecting 01
for MIDI control source A would control Emax’s filter cutoff frequency via the second MIDI
unit’s vibrato information. (Assuming, of course, that the Emax and the other MIDI unit
are connected via MIDI.)
This step of the set-up procedure lets you assign a number to the MIDI control source that matches
up with the number of the controller “transmitting” data from a MIDI unit into Emax. (For more
information on controller numbers, see the MIDI supplement.) Controller numbers are assigned in
exactly the same manner as you assigned a controller number to the Left Wheel in step 9. To jump
back to the Module Identifier press
ENTER , otherwise press the right arrow cursor key to continue the
setup.
14. The next display shows:
Assign a controller number to control source B in exactly the same manner as you assigned a
controller number to control source A in step 13.
This completes MIDI setup for the Current Preset. To return to the Module Identifier press
ENTER , or
if you want to change some parameters, dial them in with the cursor buttons.
Module: PRESET DEFINITION 8 Function: PITCH BEND RANGE
This function adjusts the pitch wheel range from +0 (off) to ±4 semitones.
1. Activate
PRESET DEFINITION 8 . The display says:
...where X is a number between 0 and 4.
2. Select the desired number with the data slider, numeric keypad. Press
ENTER after making your
choice, and Emax will return to the Module Identifier.
