MIDI – Configuring Riverside to Use MIDI
Step 1 – Set EXP jack to MIDI Mode
(See page 16 for an illustrated guide to configuring the EXP jack for MIDI
communication. Steps reprinted here.)
• Press and hold the FAVORITE footswitch while powering up the
pedal.
• Turn the LEVEL knob until the ON LED turns BLUE to set the EXP
jack mode to MIDI Mode.
• Press either footswitch to store the EXP jack assignment.
Using MIDI unlocks a set of tools that can be used to load any
of Riverside’s 300 preset locations and automate knob changes
using a suitable MIDI controller or interface connected to
Riverside’s EXP jack. This requires a MIDI controller/interface
with at least one quarter-inch output or a Strymon MIDI EXP
cable. (Check strymon.net/support/riverside for a list of compatible
devices.)
