Emax II operation manual
32
Each Emax II wheel can be assigned to a particular destination. For example, if the left
wheel is assigned to pitch, then rotating the wheel bends pitch. If assigned to the filter,
rotating the wheel varies the cutoff frequency.
Let’s set up for the next part of the tour. Choose Preset 01 as the current preset if it is not
already. Activate DYNAMIC PROCESSING, assign the entire keyboard as the current
voice if necessary, then key in 22. Press the cursor buttons and press YES for all the
enable options. This will make it easier to hear the results of the next series of
experiments.
Now activate PRESET DEFINITION and key in 9. To make “live” playing as simple as
possible, the display works somewhat differently for this module. The display shows
eight pairs of numbers:
1:1 2:4 3:0 4:0
5:0 6:0 7:3 8:6
The first number of each pair stands for one of the eight possible control sources (the left-
hand column of functions printed on the top panel under Preset Definition 9), namely:
1: Left wheel (center detent, spring return type)
2: Right wheel (continuously variable type)
3: Pressure (from external MIDI controller)
4: Control voltage pedal (plugs into rear panel PEDAL jack; also
accepts any 0 to +10V control voltage source)
5: MIDI control A (can be assigned to any MIDI controller #)
6: MIDI control B (can be assigned to any MIDI controller #)
7: Footswitch 1 (plugs into rear panel FOOT SWITCH 1 jack)
8: Footswitch 2 (plugs into rear panel FOOT SWITCH 2 jack)
The second number of the pair represents a control destination (the right-hand column
of functions printed in the module) which you assign to a control source.
Each of the destinations printed in the upper right-hand column (0-9) can be controlled
by control source 1, 2, 3, or 4, or via data sent over MIDI. For more information on MIDI,
see PRESET DEFINITION 7 (“MIDI Setup”) and the Advanced Applications section of
this manual.
Each of the destinations printed in the lower right-hand column (0-6) can be controlled
by sources 7 and 8.
You’ll be happy to know that real time control settings are memorized for each
individual preset. Thus, if desired each preset can react to the real time controls and
MIDI controllers in different ways.
