Chapter 6: Step-By-Step

STEP-BY-STEP
Note
:
Planet Phatt setup information should be transmitted from the
sequencer
before
the song actually starts, perhaps during a lead-in
measure or countdown. DO NOT send setup information just before
the first beat of the song or MIDI timing errors could result.
• Initial Setup
In the Master menu:
1) Turn ON Multi-Mode
2) Turn ON Preset Change enable for each channel.
3) Turn OFF MIDI Enable on MIDI channels that are to be used for
other synthesizers.
• Preset, Volume & Pan Setup
Program your MIDI sequencer to transmit the following information
before the song starts.
1) Select the proper presets for each MIDI channel used on Planet
Phatt.
2) Send MIDI volume information (controller #7) for each MIDI
channel used on Planet Phatt.
3) Send MIDI pan information (controller #10) for each MIDI chan-
nel used on Planet Phatt.
Now your song will play perfectly every time using the proper presets,
volumes and pan positions. In addition, presets, volumes and pan
positions (or anything else for that matter) can be adjusted in realtime
during the song. Note: If the wrong presets are being selected, check
the MIDI Program -> Preset map.
To carry the pre-sequence setup even further, you can even include
preset data for each preset used in the sequence. See page 30 for
details.
•␣ Using the 32 Channels
As stated earlier, Planet Phatt has 32 independent audio channels
which are utilized dynamically. With 32 channels and 640 presets,
you have a universe of sonic textures at your disposal. You may have
noticed that some of the very big sounding presets in Planet Phatt are
linked
with other presets or they have
chorus
applied to them. While
this is fine when the preset is played solo, you may begin to run out of
channels when Planet Phatt is played multi-timbrally. Linking and
chorusing cause twice as many channels to be used by the preset.
Learn to “budget” your output channels for maximum efficiency.
••• The Preset, Volume and
Pan information for all 16
channels is included when
the Master Settings are
transmitted or received over
MIDI.
