Controller Editing
Controller editing lets you create custom ExpressionMate Setups
for use in your MIDI studio or on stage. In this section, weÕll talk
about two different types of ÒcontrollersÓ as they apply to the
ExpressionMate.
One is the
physical
controllers: the Ribbon, buttons, pedals, and
breath controller that you move with your Þngers, feet, or breath.
The other is
MIDI
Controllers, which are the MIDI commands
that the ExpressionMate sends. For our purposes, ÒMIDI
ControllersÓ includes the complete set of Controllers deÞned by
the MIDI SpeciÞcation, as well as pitch bend, aftertouch, and a
few other useful MIDI commands. To avoid confusion, weÕll refer
to the ExpressionMateÕs physical controllers with a lower-case
ÒcÓ, and MIDI Controllers with an upper-case ÒCÓ.
You can assign any
physical
controller, in any Zone, to transmit
any
MIDI
Controller. You can also adjust each controller in each
Zone, just like the parameters on many synths and samplers.
The ExpressionMateÕs physical controllers include:
•
the Ribbon, which you can deÞne as a one- or three-section
controller.
•
the two Panel Switches,
SW 1
and
SW 2.
•
the
Breath
jack, which accepts a Yamaha (or equivalent)
breath controller.
•
the two Pedal jacks,
SP 1/CC
and
SP 2
(SP 1/CC accepts
either a switch pedal or a continuous control pedal).
There are also two sets of ÒvirtualÓ controllers, which behave
much like physical controllers. These are:
•
Fixed controllers,
FIX1
,
FIX2
, and
FIX3
, which automatically
send values when you select Setups.
•
MIDI Remap controllers,
MAP1
,
MAP2
, and
MAP3
, which
can take incoming MIDI Controllers and change them into
other MIDI Controllers.
