MIDI Setup:
the MIDI SETUP utility allows the user to set up the
β
VERB MIDI configuration. The configurable
MIDI parameters are:
˙
MIDI Channel
: allows to define the MIDI CHANNEL to associate to the
β
VERB when connected to Remote
MIDI devices. When MIDI CHANNEL is set to OFF, the
β
VERB will ignore each midi command coming from
the external midi devices.
˙
MIDI Output:
when this function is set as ON it is possible to ECHO on the MIDI output of the
β
VERB all the
incoming MIDI messages.
Effect:
this function allows to avoid the DIRECT signal percentage (Effect = WET) of the running preset, setting
the
β
VERB in a mode useful for the "Send/Return" use of the
β
VERB itself. When Effect =WET, the %Dir
field, normally available when in preset's editing, will be no longer accessible to the user. If Effect = Dry, the
%Dir field will be accessible to the user and will determine the percentage of direct signal mixed to the effected
one. Effect is a system's parameter and its action will affect all the running presets.
Output Attenuation
This control allows the digital output volume setting. This parameter is a "system parameter"
and its modification acts on all the presets.
Digital Mix On/Off Button
(14):
The function activated and deactivated by this key, represents one of the most
powerful features of
β
VERB.
β
VERB offers the possibility to mix Dry and Wet signals digitally or analogically. When Digital Mix ON/OFF key
is pressed and the related Digital Mix ON/OFF LED is on (red),
β
VERB is allowing the Dry/Wet digital mixing,
where the Dry and Wet percentages are chosen by means of the "%dir" and "%eff",
available within "EDIT MENU".
