The Quadrant section allows you to select and edit the notes for a particular quadrant. Select a quadrant
by clicking the corresponding portion of the BopPad icon. You can also select quadrants by pressing
shift + z, x, c or v.
Each quadrant can send up to 6 notes at a time. You can type these into the boxes, or use the keyboard
to enter them graphically. You can hide or show the keyboard by clicking the show/hide text.
There are buttons for copying, pasting, and clearing the selected quadrants note data, along with a
button to clear all quadrants note data if you want to start over.
You can set the MIDI channel that the quadrant will send on with the MIDI Channel box. Use the Strike
Density to optimize the response for different play styles. Fast and light stick playing will benefit from
higher settings. More expressive playing will benefit from lower settings. You can choose to send
program change and bank messages whenever the preset is selected with the Program Change and
Bank Select Boxes. You can control the sensitivity of each quadrant individually, and the overall gain of
the quadrant with the Sensitivity and Gain boxes. Gain will be applied to all data related to pressure.
Sensitivity controls how hard you have to hit the BopPad surface to trigger the modlines. Gain controls
the output values of the velocity and pressure sources.
You can enable or disable Full Volume on preset change, and Velocity Override with the Full Volume
Change and Velocity Override buttons. Full Volume Change will send a 127 velocity when you change
presets to prevent software or hardware instruments getting stuck at a lower volume when changing
presets. Velocity override will force every note to output 127 velocity regardless of how hard you hit the
BopPad surface.
