off
Blocks all G9 MIDI control data
received from the Input Channels
(Pads) from accessing the internal
sound engine. This data can still
control other connected equip-
ment via the MIDI Outputs available
(A). The control data routs back into
the console indirectly via the
external MIDI device (B).
Hint: Check the Local Control setting, if you cannot hear any sound when playing while the
trigger monitors receive signals from the connected pads.
Hint: Selecting MIDI Input to Midi Out in conjunction with Local Control off” converts the MIDI
Out port into a MIDI Thru output (Soft Thru). Choose this combination if the G9 is supposed to
function as a slave down the line in a “daisy chain”.
12.3.1.1.3 MIDI CHANNEL
Select the MIDI channel on which you want to transmit and receive MIDI Data. There are the 16
channels available. The factory setting is channel 10, which is commonly accepted as standard
MIDI channel for percussive instruments.
12.3.1.1.4 MIDI CONTROL
The G9 provides a selected number of hardware components to control other devices or let these
instruments be controlled by external MIDI devices. You have the option to assign a limited number
of Continuous Controllers out of the spectrum of the 127 controllers specified in the MIDI 1.0 stand-
ard.
The following table lists all available and relevant Continuous Controllers with their controller number
and description. The latter is also displayed in the field Description below the controlling hardware
component. It updates along with the selection of the controller number. As with the Global Midi
Settings, the selection of controller numbers is realized by tapping the number fields several times to
cycle through the underlying menu. Active controller numbers are stored automatically in the de-
vice database of the G9. The table below displays an expanded view of the underlying menus.
Each controlling component connected to the corresponding Input Channels (HH Pedal, Snare,
Ride Toms/Aux) has access to the same set of available controllers. In the factory configuration, they
are set to different values. You simply start browsing the menu at a different list entry.
