The MIDI Drawbar may be easily used with the Voce V3 organ module. The factory default MIDI map called
"Normal" is set to function with the MIDI Drawbar and requires almost no programming. The only exception is the
BRAKE foot-switch which requires the V3's brake control number be set to 74.
The MIDI drawbar and the V3 are connected in the following manner:
1.
A keyboard or sequencer's MIDI output is connected to the MIDI Drawbar MERGE IN.
2.
The MIDI Drawbar MIDI OUT is connected to the V3's MIDI IN.
The second step for configuring the MIDI Drawbars for use with the V3 is to set the MIDI channel selector switch.
It should be set to the same channel as the keyboard or sequencer. See the MIDI drawbar manual if you are unsure
about this operation.
The functions of the push-buttons when the MIDI Drawbar is used with the V3 are as follows:
VIBRATO / CHORUS ON
- Turns on the V3 vibrato or chorus effect depending on the state of the VIBRATO /
CHORUS SEL switch. If the chorus indicator (next to the VIBRATO / CHORUS SEL switch) is lit, the effect will
be chorus rather than vibrato.
VIBRATO / CHORUS SEL
- the change in the chorus or vibrato effect is only meaningful when the VIBRATO
ON indicator is lit. This switch has two functions:
1.
It selects whether the chorus or vibrato effect is turned on in the V3.
2.
It sets one of three effect depths (C/V 1, C/V 2, and C/V3).
Pushing the VIBRATO / CHORUS SEL button steps through the six possible states of chorus or vibrato and depth.
ROTATING SPEAKER ON
- Turns on the rotating speaker effect. This switch does not speed up and slow down
the rotating speaker effect (see ROTATING SPEAKER FAST); it is an effect bypass.
ROTATING SPEAKER FAST
- Toggles between the acceleration and deceleration rotating speaker effect states
in the V3 when the ROTATING SPEAKER ON switch is turned on. The foot-switch input also toggles this switch.
PERCUSSION ON
- Turns on the V3 Percussion effect. The Percussion effect is similar to the sound produced
when a xylophone is struck. When the percussion effect is not on, the state of switches PERCUSSION VOLUME,
PERCUSSION DECAY, and PERCUSSION 2ND/3RD will not affect the sound produced by the V3.
PERCUSSION VOLUME
- Toggles between two initial attack volumes for the V3 percussion effect. These
volume values are programmed into the V3 preset. This switch will affect the sound produced by the V3 only if the
PERCUSSION ON indicator is lit.
PERCUSSION DECAY
- Toggles between two decay rates for the V3 percussion effect. These rate values are
programmed into the V3 preset. This switch will affect the sound produced by the V3 only if the PERCUSSION ON
indicator is lit.
PERCUSSION 2ND/3RD
- Toggles between two percussion harmonics for the V3 percussion effect (nominally a
2nd or 3rd harmonic of the fundamental). This switch will affect the sound produced by the V3 only if the
PERCUSSION ON indicator is lit.
RE-XMIT / SAVE
- is a dual-function button. The first function is to send the state of all of the MIDI
DRAWBAR's controls (drawbars, knobs, and switches) to the V3. This is useful if the V3 state is unknown such as
