of the 128 MIDI notes to any pitch. The user-specified tun-
ings are stored in the internal non-volatile memory where
the location (from 0 – 31) is set by the MIDI ’tuning pro-
gram number’ value.
There is the choice of using the global tuning or the tuning
specified by the active patch. Note that the actual tuning
data is not stored within the patch, only the tuning preset
number. This means that if you change the tuning defi-
nition for a user-specified tuning any patches using that
tuning will use the new definition when loaded.
[TIP] EQUAL 12 tuning is the most common
tuning system used in Western music. This tuning
system has equal frequency ratios between every
note and 12 notes to the octave.
17.13 SysEx data backup
SYSEX OUT DELAY sets a delay in sending each packet of
sysex data (such as patch settings) when using MOTAS-6
with external softare over USB/MIDI. Sometimes too small
a setting here will cause loss of packets by the receiving
device so increase as required (a value of 10 is normally
ok). The only downside to a larger number here is slower
data transfer.
With PATCH BANK, PATTERN BANK and
SEQUENCE BANK the chosen bank (using the [ROTARY
ENCODER] ) can be sent over USB/MIDI when [1] is pressed
to allow data backup.
17.14 Param map control
This page allows control of sending and receive of MIDI
CC controllers mapped to parameter values (see section
17.5 ). You can enable send and receive over MIDI connec-
tions [MIDI OUT SOCKET], [MIDI IN SOCKET] and/or USB
MIDI [USB CONNECTION]. Also, you can optionally enable
send of LSB (least significant byte) data over CC to capture
fine parameter changes.
Note that if the parameter mapping is disabled then these
options are greyed out. Also note that when MIDI CC con-
trollers are enabled to be sent this prevents sending of
NRPNs for those parameters in the parameter map.
17.15 NRPN / SysEx/ THRU
Here the response to NRPN (Non-Registered Parameter
Number) MIDI data and SysEx (System Exclusive) MIDI data
is configured. NRPNs are used by MOTAS-6 to send and re-
ceive parameter changes in real-time.
MIDI IN sets which data is processed on the MIDI in con-
nector [MIDI IN SOCKET]:
OFF ignores NRPN and SysEx data
NRPN processes NRPN data only
SYSEX processes SysEx data only
NRPN+SYSEX processes both NRPN and SysEx data.
MIDI OUT sets which data is sent on the MIDI out connec-
tor [MIDI OUT SOCKET]:
OFF sends no NRPN or sysex data
NRPN sends only internal NRPN data
SYSEX sends only internal sysex data
NRPN+SYSEX sends internal NRPN and sysex data
THRU ONLY relays incoming data on the
MIDI in port (no internal data)
THRU+ALL intelligently merges all incoming
data on the MIDI in port with all
internally generated MIDI data.
Useful in polychain mode (see 17.16 ).
When MIDI OUT is set in a mode that allows sending of
internal MIDI sysex data then pressing
[BUTTON-LFO X WAVE-
FORM / INCREASE]
sends out those global settings that can af-
