Selecting Presets via Program Change (PC) Messages
The 128 user presets on the Ultrawave can be recalled via program change messages. Presets 1 to
128 are mapped to MIDI Program Change messages 0 to 127. Some companies use a 1-128
numbering system, so you may need to offset by 1.
It is possible to save presets with the Ultrawave bypassed, and it is also possible to save presets to
that they are recalled while the Ultrawave is in its bypassed state.
Controlling the Ultrawave with MIDI Continuous Controller (CC) Messages
The Ultrawave responds to MIDI Continuous Controller (CC) messages. The pedal comes mapped to a
default set of CC numbers, shown in the table below, but most of the available parameters remain
unmapped. For a complete list of default MIDI mappings and ranges, download the Neuro Desktop
Editor and connect the Ultrawave using a USB-A – Mini-B cable and click on the device in the Editor
window, then go to Device > Edit Device MIDI Map.

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 a custom mapping. Custom MIDI
CC mappings are global, meaning they are not unique per preset, and can be saved for future use by
backing up the device. 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 Ultrawave to the Neuro Desktop Editor.
• Select the Ultrawave as a device by clicking inside the blue box in the left margin.
• In the top bar menu select Device then Edit Device MIDI Map from the dropdown menu.
• The Ultrawave MIDI Map Editor window will open. Simply scroll to the MIDI CC value you
wish to remap and click that CC’s dropdown menu. A list of parameter choices will unfold.
• Select the parameter you wish to re-assign to the chosen CC. The process is complete.
USB
The Ultrawave’s USB port is plug-and-play ready for Windows and Mac computers. The Ultrawave
uses class-compliant drivers, so no special drivers are needed. Just power up the Ultrawave and
connect it to the computer using a USB cable. The computer will automatically recognize the
