PROGRAMMING BASICS
37Proteus operation manual
Let's say for instance, that you are using a Yamaha DX7 as your master
keyboard. The DX has pitch and mod. wheels, a breath controller, a data
slider and a foot pedal, all of which transmit their values over MIDI. The
standard MIDI controller numbers for the controls are listed below (the
pitch wheel has a dedicated controller, PWH). First, we would go to the
Master menu, MIDI Controller Assign and define the 4 MIDI controllers
that we wish to use. Assign each controller number to one of the letters
A-B-C-D.
01 - Modulation Wheel A
02 - Breath Controller B
04 - Foot Pedal C
06 - Data Entry D
To complete the connections for a particular preset, go to the Edit menu,
Realtime Control, and route the MIDI A, B, C, D to the desired destina-
tions. These could be patched to any 4 destinations or even to the same
destination. The MIDI Controller Amount menu, (in the Edit menu)
allows you to scale the amounts of each of the controllers by a positive or
negative value. The signal flow is shown in the diagram below.
The MIDI controllers A-B-C-D must have both a source (0-31), and a control destination assigned.
