Continuous Controller Destinations
These communicate ÒcontinuousÓ (meaning smoothly varying) values of 0Ð127 to an
external sound module or effects device. If you assign one of these to a switch pedal,
127 (maximum effect) will be sent when the pedal is down and 0 (minimum effect)
when it is up. Destinations listed as UndeÞned can be used by some receivers for
purposes that donÕt Þt the deÞned functions.
