According to a specific sound module, the ways for voice selecting and controller
settings varies, so you have to get familiar with your sound module before you can use it
freely. Also please keep in mind all the favorite folder related parts settings will be
automatically saved when the product is powered off.
Those parts that always follow the same output port/channel as F1-F8 favorite folder
settings include: keyboard, pitch bend wheel, modulation wheel, pedals, breath control,
potentiometer knobs, ribbon control, aftertouch, octave +/-, and transpose +/-, so you
cannot make the port/channel settings for those parts separately. However, you can make
the port/channel settings separately for parts like pads, encoder knobs, motorized faders
and SEQ transportation buttons.
8.1.3 Common Control Change#
There are some common control change numbers, such as cc#74 for CUTOFF
settings, and most of the sound modules respond to this cc#, so this cc# is fixed at the 4
th
potentiometer knob. This cc# work almost for all voices, and you will find other common
cc# for ATTACK, DECAY, RELEASE, RESONANCE.
Since most sound modules respond to the 5 cc#s, they are made in VX as the 5
default settings as the 5 potentiometer settings. Generally you can use the 5 knobs to
change the voice, but there may be exceptions that a few of sound modules do not
respond to those cc#s, please refer to the sound module’s manual.
The ribbon control will also send cc74# message, the same as potentiometer 4.
The pitch bend wheel and the modulation wheel will also work for most of the sound
modules.
