G4
Because the Oberheim LEVER2 can be used in two directions, you can set
up a patch that uses both LEVER2 and LEVER3 at the same time. When
the Lever is pulled toward you, the effect of LEVER2 is heard; when the
Lever is pushed away from you, the effect of LEVER3 is heard.
Operation with Other I nstruments
If you are playing the MATRIX-GR from a controller equipped with wheels or
a joy-stick, they normally provide modulation control in
one direction
only.
The patch that you are playing must specify, in the way you have
programmed it, that LEVER2
or
LEVER3 is used. If you program a patch
using
both
Levers at the same time and both are set to MIDI Controller 1 in
these parameters, using the wheel or joy-stick will cause the effect of
LEVER2 and LEVER3 to be heard
at the same time
in the patch. This
design makes for some very interesting possibilities.
1 0 SEND PATCH
1 1 SEND ALL
Any one or all 1 00 of the MATRIX-GR's patches can be sent
through its MIDI OUT to another M I D I device. This is not Patch
Numbers but the actual data that makes up the sound. The
receiving instrument can be another MATRIX-GR, an Oberheim
MATRIX-G or another device such as a computer that has been
programmed with the Oberheim SYSTEM EXCLUSIVE code for
reception.
STEP
1 :
Using a standard MIDI cable, connect the MIDI OUT of
the MATRIX-GR to the MIDI IN of the receiving
instrument.
STEP
2:
On the MATRIX-GR, select the patch that you want to
send. If you are plannng to SEND ALL, this step can be
skipped.
STEP
3:
On the receiving instrument, select the destination
patch Number. Again, if you are planning to SEND ALL,
this step can be skipped.
STEP
4:
Turn on SYSTEM EXCLUSIVE for both instruments.
STEP S:
Select " 1 0 SEND PATCH" or "1 1 SEND ALL" on the
MATRIX-GR.
STEP
6:
Press the VALUE button. The display will now read
"READ Y? "
STEP
7:
Press the YES button and the MATRIX-GR will begin its
data transfer. When the transfer is completed, the
display will switch back to the
"SEND PA TCH "
or the
"SEND ALL
" message.
