Expression parameter, you may accidentally set the MIDI Value to 0, but wouldn’t
know it because None would still be displayed. Also, if you set a MIDI Value to
None by scrolling below 0, the MIDI value will be 0 until you change the value
with the assigned controller (though None will still be displayed). If you edit the
parameters of a program and suddenly can’t produce any sound from the program,
this may be the cause. In this case, either set the Value for Expression to something
other than None, or use the Control Source that you set for Expression to increase
the Value.
Value
To change the value of a parameter, use the cursor button to highlight the right column. In
the value column, use the Alpha Wheel or the Value buttons to enter a MIDI value from
0-127, or a value of None by scrolling below 0. You can also use the keypad function of the
Category buttons followed by the Enter button to enter a MIDI value. If you set a MIDI
Value to None by scrolling below 0, the MIDI value will be 0 until you change the value with
an assigned controller (though None will still be displayed). A value of None can also be
selected by using the keypad to type -1, followed by the Enter button.
Important note about values of “None”
For factory programs, standard parameters like Expression (program volume),
Sustain, and Sostenuto are always set to None by default. If you change one of
these values, either on the Parameters page in the Program Editor, or with a physical
controller from Program Mode (or the Program Editor,) the same value will be
used for any other program you select, if you select another program that uses a
value of None for the same parameter. These values remain set even if you don’t
save the program.
This can be useful, for example, when using an expression pedal to control program
volume.
By default, all factory programs have their Expression parameter set to a value
of None, and Expression (program volume) by default can be controlled by an
expression pedal plugged into the CC 1 Pedal jack. With an expression pedal plugged
into the CC 1 Pedal jack, you can control the volume of any factory program, but
when you select another factory program, it will have the same volume that you
set with the expression pedal in the last program. This way, the volume of your
programs will stay consistent, and can always be changed by the expression pedal. If
you want a program to have a default volume, you must set a Value other than None
for the Expression parameter.
For all parameters with a Value of None, any values set with a physical control
will not be saved when saving the program. You must set the Value column
for that parameter to something other than None in order to set and save a
value. These values will remain set until changed with a controller, or until a
program is loaded on the current MIDI channel that does not have a value of
None for these parameters.
