MP-201 Multi-Pedal Manual
Firmware v2.0 Addendum
This document provides information about the features and menu items which are new in MP-201 firmware
version 2.0. For a more complete description of the various channel modes and functions, please read the MP-
201 manual in addition to this document.
The MP-201 is an incredibly flexible and powerful device designed to immediately expand your creative sonic
environment. While many aspects of this manual are technical and can at first be overwhelming, remember - the
ultimate guide is your ears! Don't be afraid to just plug in, try presets, and have fun without worrying about the
inner-workings. You will find that immediately you will be creating sounds and textures with your instruments that
were previously unimaginable.
New parameter for all channel modes:
CHAN OUTPUT
- (
CV AND MIDI
,
CV ONLY
,
MIDI ONLY
).
Control the type of output for each channel, saved per preset. This allows you to switch between presets
intended to control only analog or only MIDI gear, without needing to unhook any cables. Note:
MIDI to CV
channel output is always
CV ONLY
.
Changes to Channel Mode
EXPRESSION:
CV LAG
- (
OFF, ON
). Parameters are
RISE TIME
(0 - 4095),
FALL
TIME
(= Rise time, or 1-4095).
CV LAG
slows the change in output voltage, with independent control of rise time and fall time. Only the CV Output is
affected by
CV LAG
; MIDI output follows Foot Pedal movement with no lag. This way if you record MIDI while
sweeping the foot pedal and then play back the MIDI to the MP-201, the channel CV Output will respond exactly
as it did the first time, when the pedal movement was recorded. Note that
CV LAG
also serves the function of
MIDI CC to CV smoothing, if enabled.
Changes to Channel Mode
LFO:
NOISE
- has been removed from the list of LFO waveforms, and promoted to its own
NOISE
Channel Mode.
TAP TEMPO
- for LFO channels has been greatly improved. LFO Tap Tempo now features a running average
for more accurate and intuitive tempo matching, and the overall performance of Tap Tempo is faster and more
responsive than in firmware v1. Additionally, a bug has been fixed that was causing trouble with Tap Tempo in
Quad Mode. Tap Tempo now works on any/all channels in both Single and Quad modes of operation, with no
restrictions.
MIDI Sync
- number of MIDI Clock Divisions has been expanded. Now offers 16 clock divisions:
(
8 WHOLE
,
4 WHOLE
,
3 WHOLE
,
2 WHOLE
,
WHOLE
DOT
,
WHOLE
,
1/2 DOT
,
1/2
,
1/4 DOT
,
1/4
,
1/8 DOT
,
1/8
,
1/16 DOT
,
1/16
,
1/32 DOT
,
1/32
)
CV LAG
- CV Lag as described above for
EXPRESSION
channels is available for LFO channels also. Acts like
a fixed-frequency lowpass filter for
TRIANGLE
waveform LFOs, which can be interesting, but is probably most
suited for
SQUARE
and
SAMPLE-HOLD
LFO waveforms.
This allows you to create interesting smoothed sample and hold modulations using the
S+H RANDOM
Waveform, and various trapezoid shapes using the
SQUARE
wave.
