between the Ventris’s CONTROL INPUT jack and any of the Neuro Hub’s multi-function outputs. For
more information, refer to the Neuro Hub documentation on the Source Audio website.
MIDI
Using the MIDI IN jack (5-pin DIN) or a USB connection, the Ventris can be controlled by generic MIDI
Continuous Controller (CC) and Program Change (PC) messages. Many of the Ventris’s parameters
(even those that are not assigned to a control knob) are directly accessible via MIDI continuous
controller messages.
MIDI Channel
By default, the Ventris responds to MIDI Channel 1. The Ventris ignores all MIDI messages sent to it
that are not on its channel. The input MIDI channel for the Ventris can be changed in the Hardware
Options menu of the Neuro Editors. Note that the MIDI Input Channel is a global setting that is NOT
saved per preset. Note that some manufacturers begin counting MIDI channels at zero (from 0 to 15),
while the Source Audio Neuro Editors use the convention of counting from 1 to 16.
Selecting Presets via Program Change (PC) Messages
The 128 user presets on the Ventris can be recalled via program change messages. Presets 1 to 128
are mapped to MIDI Program Change messages 1 to 128.
It is possible to save presets with the Ventris bypassed. This means the preset can be recalled
without actually engaging the reverb effect. The reverb effect can then be engaged either by pressing
the ON/OFF FOOTSWITCH or by sending the proper MIDI Continuous Control message.
Many of the parameters in the Ventris can be controlled via MIDI. For more details, see MIDI
Implementation.
Controlling the Ventris with MIDI Continuous Controller (CC) Messages
The Ventris responds to MIDI Continuous Controller (CC) messages. The pedal comes already
mapped to a default set CC numbers. For a complete list of default MIDI mappings and ranges,
download the Ventris Dual Reverb MIDI Implementation Guide located at the bottom of the Ventris
Dual Reverb page on the Source Audio website.
Custom CC Mapping
The default MIDI map provides control over parameters using specific Continuous Controller
messages. It is also possible to override the default map and create custom mapping. Custom MIDI
CC mappings are global, meaning they are not unique per preset. The CC mapping will apply in all
situations, regardless of which preset is active.
To create a custom MIDI CC mapping, follow these steps:
• Connect your Ventris to the Neuro Desktop Editor.
• In the top bar menu select Device then Edit Device MIDI Map from the dropdown menu.
