Setting up:Tweak knobs:MIDI transmissionThe DP/Pro Tweak Knob 1 and 2 transmit and respond to
MIDI controllers. This allows you to record real-time tweaks into a MIDI sequencer, which can
reproduce the tweaks on playback by transmitting the data back to the DP/Pro. Both Tweak Knob 1
and 2 can be set to transmit and respond to any MIDI controller.
Tip: To learn more about the DP/Pro Tweak knobs, see Chapter 10.
System/MIDI Parameter 60: Twk 1 Cntlr
System/MIDI Parameter 61: Twk 2 Cntlr
Twk 1 Cntlr=FXCtrl1 #12 Twk
2 Cntlr=FXCtrl2 #13
Values: Off; All MIDI controllers
Defaults: Twk 1 Cntlr: FXCtrl1 #12; Twk 2 Cntlr: FXCtrl2 #13
What these Parameters Do:
The Twk 1 Cntlr and Twk 2 Cntlr parameters allow you to assign any MIDI controller to be
transmitted from the DP/Pro when the Tweak LED is lit and the Tweak Knob1 or Tweak Knob2 pages
are displayed. The Tweak knobs will also respond to this controller at all times—even when the
Tweak LED is off—as long as the System/MIDI Accept MIDI Msgs parameter is set to “Yes.”
Note: The Tweak knobs send and receive MIDI data on the System MIDI channel (see the
description of the System MIDI Channel parameter earlier in this chapter).
M ID I Bypassin g of t he ESP s
The DP/Pro allows you to bypass its ESPs by sending MIDI controllers of your choice on the
DP/Pro’s system MIDI channel. This feature acts in the same manner as pressing the Bypass A and/or
Bypass B buttons on the DP/Pro’s front panel. When the DP/Pro receives a value of 64 or above for a
selected controller, it switches on the target ESP’s bypass function. Values of 64 or below turn the
bypass off.
When the System/MIDI Transmit Cntlr Msgs parameter is set to “On,” pressing the front panel
Bypass buttons transmits either a 127 (when bypass is switched on) or 0 (when bypass is switched off)
value for the selected controller from the DP/Pro’s MIDI Out jack.
Note: The nature of the bypass is determined by the setting of the System/MIDI ESP-A Bypass
Btn and ESP-B Bypass Btn parameters, described later in this chapter.
