Peavey DPM C8p - 2.11 b Enabling;Disabling Parameters; 2.12 Range Velocity Selection

Except for the footswitcb.es (which can only be turned ON or OFF for each range), all the controllers on this
screen can be set to the following values:
OFF - No message sent.
POS - Message sent with die polarity shown on the CtlAsgn screen. See section 2C for more infonnation.
NEG - Message sent with the opposite polarity than that shown on the CtlAsgn screen.
Real-time crossfading can be achieved by setting a controller to opposite polarities in different ranges. For
example: If slider 1 is programmed to send volume (MIDI controller #7) with (+) polarity and enabled as POS
on range 1 and NEG on range 2. moving the slider up will increase the volume of range 1, while decreasing
the value of range 2. If the Global equal pow r er curve is Enabled (see section 4B), the C8 can perform very
smooth crossfades with little or no volume “dropout” when the controller is near the middle position. This
technique is not limited to volume—some interesting effects can be achieved by using pan (MIDI controller
#10) or pitch bend.
Note: In order for a slider’s button to be enabled for a range, the slider must be enabled for that range.
2.11a Selecting the Range to Be Edited
Press the RngStep (Range Step) soft button to increment to the next higher, active, range. Going past 8 wraps
around to Range 1.
2.11b Enabling/Disabling Parameters
Place the cursor on device to be enabled or disabled (pitch wheel, wheel 2, wheel 3, keyboard pressure, sliders
1 -4, footswitches, foot CV1 and foot CV 2) and select either ON or OFF (for footswitches), or select OFF, POS
or NEG (for the rest).
2.11c Accessing Other Pages
Note that you can also access the Ranges page (section 2B), Vol/Prg page (section 2.10), and Save Preset
page (section 214) by pressing the appropriate soft button.
2.12 Range Velocity Selection
Each range has its own velocity curve that determines how r the MIDI velocity value will correspond to the
dynamics of your playing. Each curve is based on one of 33 curves stored in ROM, as customized with user-
programmable scale and offset parameters.
Press the Velocity soft button from any page where it appears to call up the following screen:
