Assigning A Single Knob To Control Relative Volume In Different Zones
Assigning A Single Knob To Control Relative Volume In
Different Zones
You
can
assign
a
single
Knob
to
adjust
the
relative
volume
of
multiple
Zones
in
a
Setup.
For
example,
let’s
edit
the
setup
58 Piano & Pad
. The setup
58 Piano & Pad
is a layered setup that uses
piano on Zone 1 and “pad” type synth sounds on Zones 2 and 3. Let’s assign a single Knob to control the
volumes of Zones 2 and 3, but we’ll setup our assignment so that Zone 3 is always quieter than Zone 2.
There are two methods of achieving this relative volume assignment, each sounds and behaves differently.
Try both methods because one may sound better than the other depending on the situation. Let’s go over
both methods and look at the advantages of each.
Offset Method
Using
the
Offset
method
allows
you
to
set
an
exact
value
that
the
volume
of
your
Zones
will
be
changed
by.
Since
MIDI
controller
values
only
range
from
0
‐
127,
volumes
that
are
changed
by
an
offset
get
truncated
to
0
or
127
if
the
addition
of
the
offset
to
your
current
volume
results
in
a
value
below
0
or
above
127.
Using
an
offset
gives
you
the
advantage
of
being
able
to
set
an
exact
difference
in
volume,
but
can
be
troublesome
in
certain
situations
if
you
don’t
want
your
values
to
be
truncated.
1. If you are not already in Setup mode, press the
