USING PROTEUS FX WITH A
SEQUENCER
We thought you’d never ask. Proteus FX
was designed from its conception with
multi-timbral sequencing in mind. Just
take a look at the main screen.
C01 Vol127 Pan+0
000 Preset Name
The preset for each MIDI channel is
selected from the main screen. Press the
cursor button to move the cursor up so
that it is underneath the channel num-
ber.
C01 Vol127 Pan+0
000 Preset Name
Turn the data entry control and you will
see that every MIDI channel has a preset
assigned to it. Just select a preset for each
of the MIDI channels. It’s simple! In order
to respond to multiple MIDI channels,
Proteus FX must be in Multi-Mode. Multi-
Mode is selected in the Master menu.
Press the Master menu button and use
the data entry control to scroll through
the screens until you find MIDI MODE.
MIDI MODE ID
Multi 00
Move the cursor down to the second line
and change the mode to Multi as shown.
Proteus FX will now respond to multiple
MIDI channels.
MORE ADVANCED SEQUENCING
Pre-Sequence Setup
Suppose that you want to have your
sequencer set up everything for you
before the start of the song. Good idea.
This will make the Proteus FX setup
procedure automatic and prevent the
wrong presets from playing.
The basic idea of a pre-sequence setup is
to send out MIDI information just before
the start of the song. This MIDI informa-
tion will select all the proper presets,
adjust the mix, and pan positions of each
preset.
Note:
Proteus FX setup information
should be transmitted from the sequencer
before the song actually starts, perhaps
during a lead-in measure or countdown.
DO NOT send setup information just
before the first beat of the song or MIDI
timing errors could result.
Initial Setup
In the Master menu:
1) Turn ON Multi-Mode
2) Turn ON Preset Change enable for
each channel.
3) Turn OFF MIDI Enable on MIDI
channels that are to be used for other
synthesizers.
PRESET, VOLUME & PAN SETUP
Program your MIDI sequencer to
transmit the following information before
the song starts.
1) Select the proper presets for each
MIDI channel used on Proteus FX.
2) Send MIDI volume information
(controller #7) for each MIDI channel
used on Proteus FX.
3) Send MIDI pan information (control-
ler #10) for each MIDI channel used
on Proteus FX.
