To Play Notes and Use Common MIDI Modulation Signals with a Specic Pad or Pads:
You can also congure a specic pad to respond to MIDI notes by assigning a MIDI
channel to the pad on the pad’s parameters screen. How the pad responds will depend
on the Pad mode.
1. Push HOME, and select the pad you want to control with the MIDI Device.
2. Push the right arrow button twice to see the Pad Parameter screen, and then
use the top knob to scroll down to see the MIDI related parameters.
3. Set the MIDI In parameter to assign a specic channel to this pad and now
your MIDI device transmitting on this channel will play this pad. If the pad is in
sample (single), granular or clip mode, each MIDI note will play the pad pitch
shifted in the same way the Keys screen works. If the pad is a Slicer, each
MIDI note will play a slice of the le in the same way it works on the Keys
screen. If the pad is using multi-sample, the notes will trigger the appropriate
sample based on root note or sample mapping.
To Play Notes and Use MIDI Modulation Signals with the Currently Selected Pad:
This is a more global version of the procedure described in the previous section. The
dierence is that here you are setting up a MIDI channel that is not pad specic.
Whichever pad is currently selected will respond to the MIDI channel specied as the
MIDI Keys channel. As with the MIDI Pads setting, you can select OMNI for the MIDI
Keys channel to have bitbox micro respond to all channels in this way. However, any
channel that is assigned to anything else is pulled from the pool of MIDI channels that
bitbox micro responds to in Omni mode.
1. Push TOOLS and then touch MIDI In to see the global MIDI input settings.
2. Turn the knob next to MIDI Keys to select the MIDI Channel bitbox micro will
use as the global keys channel.
Notes:
► You can have more than one pad mapped to a specic MIDI channel. In this
case, bitbox micro will play all mapped pads when a note is received on that
channel.
► If you are using a modulation source other than MIDI CC for this pad, then the
corresponding MIDI Modulation signals received on this pad’s MIDI In channel
(e.g. MIDI Velocity) will be applied as congured for this pad.
