SINGTHING User Manual
10. MIDI
Perhaps you noticed the 5-pin MIDI input on the back panel? If you’re so
inclined, you can control many of your SingThing’s functions using MIDI control
commands (CCs). If this is an entirely new concept to you, don’t worry, it’s pretty
straightforward. Musical Instrument Digital Interface (MIDI) is a standard that
allows cross-platform communication between all kinds of digital instruments.
Part of the MIDI standard is designed to allow controllers (keyboards, buttons,
sliders, knobs, etc) to send messages to devices under control. Some of the CCs
are pre-defined by the MIDI standard, and some are left deliberately open to
allow manufacturers to choose CCs that are specific to certain functions on their
products – SingThing uses both to allow MIDI control over most of its parameters.
The table below shows the MIDI CCs to which SingThing is responsive. If you’d like
to learn more about MIDI CCs, or anything else to do with the MIDI standard, the
good people at TweakHeadz Lab have written one of the best guides we’ve found
so far: http://tweakheadz.com/midi-controllers/
