Peavey DPM C8p - 4.11 Changing the Curves Offset; 4.12 Changing the Curves Scale

4.11 Changing the Curve’s Offset
Modify the ROM curve by first changing the offset. Place the cursor on the Offset parameter and select an
offset amount from +100 to -100 Positive numbers add a constant amount of base pressure to the curve;
in other words, the pressure will not be lower than this value. Negative values subtract a constant amount
from the pressure curve (although the resulting pressure value cannot be lower than O’).
You may want to avoid positive values here, since they can cause a jump from zero to the offset value the
first time you press down after the preset is recalled.
4 .12 Changing the Curve s Scale
Further modify the ROM curve by changing the scale. Place the cursor on the Scale parameter and select die
desired scale. '1'his value multiplies all pressure values by a constant, from 1 % to 200 % (100% does not affect
the selected value).
11' necessary, continue changing the offset and scale parameters until the graph that displays the relation of MIDI
output to input pressure shows the desired curve and pressing on the keyboard produces the desired feel.
Note: The Pressure Curve is used for the C8s pressure regardless of what the pressure controller is
assigned to do. Other controllers (sliders, etc.) assigned to send Channel Pressure will not be
processed by the curve.
Also Note: Incoming MIDI that is merged through the Ranges will not be processed through this curve since
it is not part of the preset. Only the C8 keybed’s pressure will go through the curve.
SECTION 4E GLOBAL , FOOTSWITCH POLARITY SCREEN
The four footswitches can have either positive or negative polarity, meaning that you can use either normally
open or normally closed, momentary push-button switches. If pressing a footswitch does not cause the
intended action but releasing it does, then use the polarity function to change the footswitch polarity.
Place the cursor on the polarity parameter for the desired footswitch, and select between + (closing the switch
initiates an action) or - (opening the switch initiates an action).
