MIDI Channel
CRAFTSynth’s MIDI channel can be set from the front panel, or with CRAFTapp.
To set using the front panel, hold any four pads and select the desired MIDI channel using the
buttons 1 - 16.
MIDI Output
All controls on the craft output midi messages. This allows CRAFTrhythm to be used as a fully
functional plug and play MIDI controller!
When a change is detected on any of the parameters, a CC message is sent out. See the MIDI
implementation chart in the MIDI section to find which parameters send which CC numbers.
The touchpads send MIDI notes for the note that they are set to trigger.
MIDI Input
Sample Trigger
CRAFTrhythm can be played by sending it MIDI notes. This means you can use your DAW or
any device that can send MIDI notes over USB to sequence the currently selected samples on
CRAFTrhythm along with the corresponding track parameters. Alternatively if INPUT is active
then you can use the MIDI notes below to input steps onto the sequencer grid.
MIDI note numbers:
• 36 - triggers track 1
• 37 - triggers track 2
• 38 - triggers track 3
• 39 - triggers track 4
• 40 - triggers track 5
• 41 - triggers track 6
• 42 - triggers track 7
• 43 - triggers track 8
MIDI Clock
Configure your DAW to send MIDI clock (Sync) to CRAFTrhythm and it will automatically
configure itself to work in time with your track tempo.
When no clock is detected, the CRAFTrhythm will continue to use whatever tempo it is
configured to.
Program Change
Sending a program change to CRAFTsynth will load the relevant kit preset.
This enables you to automate changes between sound, for example to move between
different elements of a track, or from one track to the next.
CC control parameters list
Selected parameters for all tracks of the sample engine can be controlled by sending CC
messages to CRAFTrhythm:
• Level
• Tune
• Pan
• Cutoff
• Reso
All other parameters of the sample engine can also be controlled via CC message, but only for
the currently selected track.
The following table shows which midi CC numbers control which parameters.
