Value Column
To change the value of a parameter, use the NAVIGATION buttons to highlight the right
column. In the value column, use the ALPHA WHEEL or the keypad function of the
Category buttons followed by the ENTER button to enter a MIDI value from 0-127. You
can also select a value of None by scrolling below 0. If you set the Value to None by scrolling
below 0, the MIDI value will be 0 until you change the value with an assigned controller
(though None will still be displayed).
Important Note: Values of “None”
For factory programs, standard parameters like Expression (program volume), Sustain,
and Sostenuto are always set to None by default. If you change one of these values,
either on the Parameters page in the Program Editor, or with a physical controller from
Program Mode (or the Program Editor), the same value will be used for any other
program you select, if you select another program that uses a value of None for the same
parameter. ese values remain set even if you don’t save the program.
is can be useful, for example, when using an expression pedal to control program
volume. By default, all factory programs have their Expression parameter set to a value of
None, and Expression (program volume) by default can be controlled by an expression
pedal plugged into the CC Pedal jack. With an expression pedal plugged into the CC
Pedal jack, you can control the volume of any factory program, but when you select
another factory program, it will have the same volume that you set with the expression
pedal in the last program. is way, the volume of your programs will stay consistent,
and can always be changed by the expression pedal. If you want a program to have a
default volume, you must set a Value other than None for the Expression parameter.
For all parameters with a Value of None, any values set with a physical control
will not be saved when saving the program. You must set the Value column for
that parameter to something other than None in order to set and save a value.
ese values will remain set until changed with a controller, or until a program is
loaded on the current MIDI channel that does not have a value of None for these
parameters.
