dialog box offers you both global and patch-speci c connections.
2.2.1.1
Global MIDI Map Settings
Select the
controller number
, either by directly
controller number, either by directly controller number
typing it in, or by twiddling the physical control
on the MIDI device you intend to use.
Set the
response curve, polarity,
and
range.
The
response curve may be linear, or exponential,
or logarithmic. The polarity is either direct or
inverted. To set the
Control Range,
drag either
end of the bar inward. Whenever the bar covers
less than the entire controller range, you may
also drag it to the right or left, to adjust the
range offset.
You may, if you wish, assign the same external
control to several TimewARP 2600 sliders or
knobs, and set a different curve, polarity, and
range for each one. In this way, you can create
patches and con gurations of the TimewARP
2600 that are speci cally adapted for expressive
performance either live or in the studio.
2.2.1.2
Patch-Speci c Settings
Besides globally assigning a slider, knob or switch to a MIDI controller, you may also
assign the slider or knob to be controlled by the velocity and/or aftertouch parameters
of incoming keyboard events. (These assignments are
not
global; they are stored with
not global; they are stored with not
individual patches.)
In real time, these controller values are summed with the current global control values
to determine the real-time value of the slider. So, by careful tuning beforehand, you can
have both keyboard expression and hardware knob/slider control at the same time.
2.2.2
MIDI Patch Selection
In each grou
p of patches, the  rst 128 are available to standard incoming MIDI patch selection
commands.
Patch categories don’t affect this numbering. For example, if the  rst category in a group
has 127 patches, then the second category will have just one patch available for MIDI
patch selection.
Groups themselves can be selected with MIDI bank-select commands
