External Zone Expression Control Number
This Advanced Feature allows you to select how you want to control the level of the selected External Zone. You
can select either “VOL” (Volume or Controller #7) or “EXP” (Expression or Controller #11).
Turn the VALUE Rotary Control to make your selection.
What Is the Difference Between “Volume” and “Expression?”
In purely technical terms, Volume and Expression are identical - both control loudness or sound level. The
difference lies with how they are customarily used in MIDI applications, particularly in creating and playing back
MIDI sequences.
The generally accepted protocol is to use Controller #7 (Volume) to set the overall or absolute level of a voice or
sound, and use Controller #11 (Expression) to make variations (such as crescendi or diminuendi) against the overall
level set by Controller #7. This is recommended particularly if you want to use your SKX as a MIDI input device to
record a sequence.
NOTE: In order for the External Zone Volume feature to work, the Expression Control Number must be set to
“7:VOL.” If this parameter is set to “11:EXP,” changing the External Zone Volume setting will have no effect.
