Rule Groups
Your ZDS Shifter supports up to four
rule groups
which are represented
by the tabs in the interface, labeled ‘Group A’ through ‘Group D’.
Each group is turned on/off by a specific CC message. These typically are
controlled by the footswitches and you’ll set the CC message and channels
to match.
Note however that the groups are not limited to responding only to the
footswitches. You could for instance setup the momentary switch on your
Zendrum to control one or more of the groups. So long as the groups see
a MIDI message appear for the
CC message
and
channel
it is listening
for, it will activate, regardless of what device generated it.
Be aware also that more than one group may be set up to respond to the
same CC message. How you distribute shift rules and arrange your
groupings is purely a matter of taste.
Controlling the power/activity LED
The power LED also doubles as a MIDI activity indicator. Its default mode
is to remain lit when power is present and to flicker when there is MIDI
activity. You can change the mode by opening the menu next to the LED
indicator.
