2.5 MIDI Controller Messages
There are 135 MIDI controller messages that are used for controlling the MIDI-adjustable parameters in your software or
on your external MIDI gear(0 to127 is the standard MIDI control parameter,128 to 134 is the special MIDI control
parameter). Examples of these controllable parameters include volume, pan, expression, reverb, chorus and portamento.
Each of the controls on your Blue Whale keyboard is able to send any of the 128 standard MIDI controller messages to
control such parameters. Please note that in order for these effects to work, the MIDI device you are sending to must be
able to receive these messages. A full list of these control messages is given in Appendix C.
For example, you may want to set the Modulation touch strip to control the reverb amount. This is done by assigning
controller 91 to the Modulation touch strip.
Examples of other popular effects are listed in the table below. (Please consult Appendix C for the full list.)

There are many different types of virtual instruments available and most of these respond to MIDI controller messages,
allowing you to control a variety of parameters from your Blue Whale keyboard. Please review the manual that came with
your software or external gear to see what these controller numbers are.
