AuxD
There is one exception: the Ribbon has an Auxiliary Destination
(AuxD) letting you send a total of two controller messages from
each Ribbon section in each Zone. AuxD takes effect whenever
you move away from the initial point of contact on the Ribbon.
AuxD will always spring to a value of 64; when it is active, it is
controlled by Curves, Entry, and Exit values. You must scale it to
send something like modulation from 0 to 127 from the Þrst point
where you place your Þnger.
Note: AuxD is only meaningful when the normal
destination is one of those that plays notes (40-42).
See the description of the Note Controllers on page 54
for more information on playing notes from the ribbon
and continuous controllers.

Breath (BRTH) Parameters
You can plug a breath controller into the rear-panel Breath jack. If
youÕre not familiar with breath controllers, they usually resemble
the headsets worn by telephone operators. Blowing into the
controllerÕs mouthpiece sends Controller data. You can imitate
ßutes, saxophones, and other wind or brass instruments more
easily this way, because youÕre using your breath pressure to
control the sound.
