With the Neuro Desktop Editor, it is also possible to assign a number of different control functions to
an external switch. Go to the Neuro Desktop Hardware Options section for instructions on assigning
alternate control options to an external dual or single external switch.
External Switches (1/8” TRRS Connection)
The Source Audio Tap Tempo footswitch can also be connected to the CONTROL IN jack using a
3.5mm (1/8 inch) cable. If you wish to use this function, you must enable the function globally with
the Use Control Input for External Switch option in the Hardware Options section of the Neuro
Desktop Editor. You also need to use the Control Input dropdown menu to select the function of the
Tap Tempo switch. Options include Preset Increment, Preset Decrement or Engine Tap Function (this
option mimics whichever option has been selected (per preset) in the Option Tap dropdown menu of
Option Footswitch Assignment section of the Sound Editor).
Source Audio Tap Tempo footswitches can be purchased directly from the Reverb.com Official Source
Audio Online Store.
External Expression Control
A variety of the Ventris’s effects parameters can be controlled with a passive expression pedal
connected to either the PEDAL IN or the CONTROL INPUT port. The expression pedal can be mapped
to simultaneously control any combination of up to three knobs or Neuro parameters. Mapping
parameters can be done either in the External Control section of the Neuro Desktop Editor or with
the pedal by itself (see the Configuring Expression Pedal section for instructions on mapping knob
parameters to an expression pedal without the Neuro Desktop).
External Expression Controller (1/4” TRS Connection – PEDAL IN jack)
Passive expression pedals such as the Source Audio Dual Expression Pedal or Reflex Universal
Expression Pedal can be connected directly to the 1/4" PEDAL IN jack with a TRS cable. Make sure that
the PEDAL IN switch (next to the PEDAL IN jack) is set to EXP when using this input for expression
control. Third-party expression pedals can be used as well, as long as they have a TRS (Tip Ring
Sleeve) plug with power on the ring, expression (the wiper of the potentiometer) on the tip, and
ground on the sleeve, as seen in the diagram below.
Please note, expression pedals with TS (Tip Sleeve) plugs will not work correctly with the expression
input (PEDAL IN jack) of the Ventris. Also, the resistance of the expression pedal is not critical. Pedal
calibration is done automatically when a new external control mapping is created.
