CONTROL CHANGE CHART
The Volcano responds to Control Change messages 2-21 as on/off type messages. Controller 0 is reserved to allow gain
to change when a gain range is selected with a program.
Controller 2
toggles between mute and the current level.
Controller 3 or 4
are used to toggle between bypass (0dB of gain) and the previous level. Use controller 3 if the
LINE/INSTRUMENT switch is set to LINE, otherwise use controller 4.
Controller 5
is used to temporarily set the unit to MIDI OMNI mode where the unit will respond to MIDI messages over
any MIDI channel. See the Tech Tip section for creative ways to use this controller.
Controller 6
is used to allow the unit to respond to any MIDI messages over MIDI channel 16 in addition to the currently
selected channel. This has a similar use to Controller 5 but is more restrictive allowing additional MIDI gear to still be
used on the other unused channels. See the Tech Tips Section for uses for this controller.
Controllers 7-21
are used to additively increase the gain of the current level. For example, turning on Controllers 7, 8
and 15 will add 3+3+6 dB of gain for a total of 12dB of gain to the current fixed gain level (or end gain on a sweep gain
setting). The gain can never go above the maximum gain of the unit and any switches turned on past that point are
simply ignored. Having a set of these switches can be handy if you wish to momentarily increase the gain in incremental
amounts without actually going to another gain program especially since it can be used with any selected gain program.
