Chapter 13 Sculpture 287
Dene Sculpture MIDI controllers
The bottom strip of the Sculpture interface is used to dene MIDI controllers—for vibrato depth
control or Morph Pad movements, for example. You can use any MIDI controller shown in the
menus for these control sources.
These parameters are saved with each setting. They are updated only if the default setting that
is loaded on instantiating the plug-in is used, or if the setting was saved with a project. This
approach helps you to adapt all MIDI controllers to the keyboard without having to edit and save
each setting separately.
MIDI controller parameters
•
Vib Depth Ctrl pop-up menu: Choose the MIDI controller used for vibrato depth control.
•
Ctrl A and Ctrl B pop-up menus: Choose two controllers that can be used for side-chain
modulations or as via modulation sources—set in the CtrlA and CtrlB modulation
routing panes.
•
CtrlEnv 1 and CtrlEnv 2 pop-up menus: Choose controller assignments for the two control
envelopes—used as a modulation signal or an oset, the latter in cases where the control
envelope is set to Ctrl only or Ctrl+Env modes. They are also used to dene the source for
recording controller movements.
•
Morph X and Morph Y pop-up menus: Choose controller assignments for the x and y coordinates
of the Morph Pad. After they are assigned, the controller can be used to manually move the
morph point, program single Morph Envelope points, shift the entire Morph Envelope, and
serve as a source for recording morph movements.
•
Mode menu: Choose whether you want to use the default MIDI controller assignments or
the assignments loaded from the setting. If you choose Use Default, the assignments remain
unchanged. If you choose Load From Setting, you use the assignments you saved with the
setting. (The default assignments are taken from the #default.pst setting, if it exists, which is
loaded when Sculpture is inserted into an instrument channel strip.)
Learn a MIDI controller assignment
1 Open a control pop-up menu, and choose the Learn item.
2 Move the controller on your MIDI keyboard or MIDI controller.
Note: If no suitable MIDI message is received within 20 seconds, the selected control reverts to
the previous value/assignment.
