Click the “curve” tool
Design a climbing line starting at the beginning of the editing space to bring up
the pressure progressively.
Save your Riff preset by clicking on the “Save As” button. This will create a copy
of the current preset. Choose a new name by double clicking on one of the 3
fields.
It’s possible to import a previously programmed riff and format it to a MIDI file. In the
same way a new riff composed in BRASS 2 can be exported in the same format.
4.3 Using BRASS 2 via MIDI
As we have previously seen, it is possible to play an instrument directly on a MIDI
keyboard (or through a sequence coming from a MIDI sequencer).
Additionally, BRASS 2 can be controlled with the help of a MIDI breath controller or an
Akai EWI (uniquely in “Play” mode).
To do this, return to Live mode then choose the “Keyboard + BC” option in the
MIDI PRESET page.
Choose the “Keyboard Breathe controller” option
Choose the parameter(s) that you wish to assign to the breath controller by
connecting to the last of the 9 types of modulation.
Make a connection from a “breath controller” to the desired parameter (“Pressure”
and “Noise” for example).
