6. Master parameters (menu green)

6.1. Midi Ch(annel) 

< 001 - 016 >

Midi channel on which the ModBase 09 MkII receives and transmits Midi 
data.

Received are: note on/off, note number, program change, controllers. 
Transmitted are:  note on/off, note number, program change.

6.2. Split Mode  

< SM1 / SM2 >

<SM1> The kick drum is only played on standard note C1 (GM standard kick

drum) with the internal pitch (4.2 Pitch).
<SM2> Note range C1-C2. The note within the octave is added to the pitch 

of the kick drum.
<SM3> Note range C2-C3. The note within the octave is added to the pitch 

of the kick drum.
<SM4> Note range C3-C4. The note within the octave is added to the pitch 

of the kick drum.
<SM5> Note range C1-C6. The kickdrum is played across the entire 

keyboard, and the note gets added to the pitch of the kickdrum. Please note
that due to the used analog circuitry it is not possible to play the bass drum 

VCO in exact semitone intervals. You should better see it as a tool to obtain 
different kick tunings on a direct access.

6.3. Acc Sens(ivity)  

< t01- t99 >

Adjusts the accent threshold in case accent triggering is activated ( Gate 

Mode = ACC).  It is the incoming level from which on the kick drum gets 
triggered via ACC in. If this menu is selected, the LED column works as a VU

meter which shows the incoming accent CV. A weak lit red LED point 
roughly shows the trigger threshold from which on the sound gets triggered.

If you dial the value with the wheel, the weak red LED point goes up or 
down.
