Sequencing
“Multitimbral” means that Proteus 1000 can play multiple sounds at the
same time. For a multitimbral sequence to play back correctly, the proper
preset must be selected for each MIDI channel. This could be done by
inserting preset changes into each track of your sequence before the
sequence starts. Proteus 1000 also provides another way to store this “pre-
sequence setup” using the Multisetup menu.
Using Multisetups, you’ll set up the preset, volume and pan settings for
each MIDI channel as you build your sequence, then save the Multisetup
when it’s the way you want it. Sending one preset change command before
the sequence starts selects the Multisetup and MIDI settings for all 32
channels.
To Set up Proteus 1000 for Multitimbral Operation
1. Set the MIDI mode to “multi mode,” using the MIDI mode function in
the Master menu.
2. Decide which MIDI channels you want Proteus 1000 to receive (32
channels can be used simultaneously). If you are using 16 MIDI
channels or less, just use one of the MIDI ports. Use both MIDI ports if
you need more than 16 MIDI channels. You can turn any unused
channels OFF using the MIDI Enable function in the Master menu.
3. Select the desired preset for each of the MIDI channels you want the
Proteus 1000 to receive using the MIDI Channel/Preset selection screen.
You can also set the initial Volume and Pan settings for each channel.
4. Proteus 1000 now responds multitimbrally on each of the MIDI
channels you have specified. The volume and pan position parameters
can be adjusted dynamically over MIDI (during the sequence).
5. Save the Multisetup.
To Link a Multisetup with your Sequence
1. Insert a MIDI bank and program change in the lead-in measure of your
sequence to select the proper Multisetup before the sequence starts.
2. The Multisetup will now be selected before the sequence starts.
