Expressive Volume Control of a Part
This example shows you how to use the foot controller as an expression
pedal. This may come in handy when use of MIDI Volume (#7) or Expres-
sion (#11) is unavailable.
Operation
1
Select the desired Part and Voice.
Keep the settings you made to Part 1 (in the last example), and
select a new Part/Voice for this example. From the Multi Play
mode, select Part 2 with the [PART
-
/
+
] buttons. (This should
be set to MIDI channel 2; set the MIDI channel on the con-
nected keyboard accordingly.) A good Voice for this application
would be PercOrg# (018); select this with the [VALUE
-
/
+
]
buttons or data dial.
2
Set the Assignable Controller number for the Part.
Set this to “04.” (Refer to step #3 in “Using the Assignable Con-
troller — Setting Up” above.)
3
From the “OTHERS” parameters, select “AC1AmpCtrl” and set it
to “+63.”
Use the [SELECT
<
/
>
] buttons to select the Amplitude (level)
Control parameter, then set the value with the [VALUE
-
/
+
]
buttons or data dial.
Now, play the organ sound and use the foot controller to play ex-
pressive volume swells. For details on the AC1 Amplitude Control
parameter, see page 125.
Expressive Control of Individual Drum Sounds
In this example, the foot controller is used to produce expressive timbre
changes and filter sweeps on selected drum sounds, using the Filter Control
parameter.
Operation
1
Select a Drum Part.
Select Part 10 with the [PART
-
/
+
] buttons, and make sure
that the connected keyboard is set to transmit over MIDI chan-
nel 10.
2
Set the Assignable Controller number for the Part.
Set this to “04.” (Refer to step #3 in “Using the Assignable Con-
troller — Setting Up” above.)
