When type is set to unipolar and the external
controller is all the way up, the parameter will
take on a value determined by the origin and the
range. Here 10% plus 66% = 76 %.
When type is set to bipolar, the parameter takes on the value of the origin when the
external controller is halfway up (or halfway down if you're a pessimist).
When type is set to min/max and the external
controller is all the way up, the parameter will take
on a value determined by maximum, 66 % in
this case. When the external controller is all the
way down, the parameter will take on a value
determined by
minimum. You can toggle the display between showing minimum and
maximum by hitting SELECT.
The final parameter on the external modulation menu page is just a duplicate of the
parameter you’re modulating. Its value reflects the applied external modulation, so you
can see the result of all your futzing as you futz (the external modulation’s value will be ADDED to the
parameter’s value)
. Additionally, you can adjust the value of the parameter while you futz as we
did in the example above. If you modulate a gang of four or more parameters, they will not be shown on the
external modulation menu page because there isn’t enough room to fit them all!
In practice, scaling is even more flexible than we've described here. It's one of those
things that's much easier to do than to describe!
The Concept Behind "Redirection" - External Assigns 1-8 and Trigs 1 & 2
"Redirection" allows a program developer to use an external controller in his program,
while allowing one to assign which actual external controller is used at a later time. An
external controller "placeholder" is used in the program, and you fill in a specific external
controller for that "placeholder." Redirection also allows you to select a "placeholder" on
an external modulation or trigger menu page. If you select the same "placeholder" on
several external modulation or trigger menu pages, you can change the actual external
controller that fills that "placeholder" by making one change. If redirection didn’t exist,
you would need to go to each and every one of those external modulation or trigger menu
pages and change the actual external controller manually.
Wow ! That’s pretty abstract. If it doesn’t
make sense yet, read through this section and then re-read this paragraph.
There are eight external assignment "placeholders": assign 1, assign 2, ..., assign 8.
There are two external trigger "placeholders": trig 1 and trig 2.
