The lower the value of this parameter, the slower the H8000FW will
transmit MIDI messages. This can be useful if the device being sent to is "unhappy" with
faster rates.

its internal tempo (

equipment can synchronize.
That’s it for MIDI globals. If you press the

Many aspects of the H8000FW’s operation can be controlled by "external" signals. These
"external" signals include MIDI signals and signals at the rear panel foot pedal jacks 1 and
2 (
see
External Controllers
on page 95 to set these controllers up). External "modulation"
involves altering a parameter value over a
range
of values. For example, you could
modulate a delay from 5 milliseconds to 25 milliseconds. At different points in time, the
delay will be 5 milliseconds, 25 milliseconds,
and all of the values in-between
. An external
"trigger," on the other hand, has only two states. It is
not
continuous. For example, you
could trigger a gate to open. The gate can be either open or closed. A trigger switches the
parameter from one state to the other.
The various external modulation and trigger menu pages you will encounter are all
variations on a common theme. Although the length of this section might lead you to
think otherwise, all you’re really doing on these menu pages is selecting the external
controller that will modulate or trigger a parameter. If the external controller you select
involves MIDI, then you will also have to deal with MIDI channels and (possibly) MIDI
control numbers. This adds length to our discussion, but it shouldn’t add complexity.
In the case of external modulation menu pages, we’re doing one more thing: we’re
scaling
the external controller to suit the range of modulation we would like. Again, the concept
is simple, but we’ll have to get a little wordy in the process of describing it. Apologies . . .
For the sake of providing an example, we’re
going to externally modulate the
