MIDI effects
Context Gate
The Context Gate allows for selective triggering/filtering
of MIDI data. It can be used for context selective control of
MIDI devices. The following parameters are available:
Poly Mode – Chord Gate
When Chord Gate is activated, only notes in recognized
chords are let through. There are two modes of chord rec-
ognition available; Simple and Normal. In Simple mode, all
standard chords (major/minor/b5/dim/sus/maj7 etc.) are
recognized, whereas Normal mode also takes more ten-
sions into account.
Poly Mode – Polyphony Gate
This allows you to filter MIDI according to the number of
pressed keys within a given key range. This can be used
independently or in conjunction with the Chord Gate func-
tion.
• The Minimum value field allows you to specify the mini-
mum number of notes needed for the notes to be let
through.
• The Upper/Lower Range sets the key range.
Only notes within this range will be let through.
Mono Mode – Channel Gate
When this is activated, only single note events in a speci-
fied MIDI channel are let through, which can be used with
MIDI controllers that can send MIDI over several channels
simultaneously, for example guitar controllers which send
data for each string over a separate channel. You can ei-
ther set this to a specific channel (1–16), or to “Any”, i.e.
no channel gating.
Mono Mode – Key Range Gate
This can be used independently or in conjunction with the
Channel Gate function. Played notes will sound (no note
off message) until a note is played inside the set Upper
and Lower range (and additionally the set Channel Gate
channel, if checked).
Panic button
Sends an “All Notes Off” message over all channels, in
case of hanging notes.
Learn button
When this is activated, you can specify a Reset trigger
event via MIDI. Whenever this specific MIDI event is sent,
it triggers an “All Notes Off” message. When you have set
the Reset event, the Learn button should be deactivated.
Auto Release time
If there is no input activity, all resounding notes are sent a
note off message after the set time, in seconds or millisec-
onds.
Minimum Velocity
Notes below a set velocity threshold value will be gated.
