External MIDI Control - of Fader Parameters

All fader assignable parameters can be remote controlled via MIDI Control Change Messages. To be able to control Faders

you must create a dedicated Fader User Group holding these parameters. Page 22 in this manual section explains how to

create User Fader Groups. Fader Groups are explained on page 5.

Single Precision - Double Precision

We support both single (7bit) and double precision (14 bit) Controller Data, but you should notice that best resolution is

achieved using 14 bit Controller Data. By controlling parameters with Single precision you will be able to control in 128

steps for a complete parameter range. For most applications this will be quite fine and this is also the precision most

external controllers and especially sequencers support. This is called 7 bit precision.

However, System 6000 supports the 14 bit precision standard that has a considerably higher resolution: 128x128=16384

steps.

To achieve this resolution via an external fader control the external controlling device must be able to handle two

controllers at the same time on the same MIDI channel. The scheme below shows which controllers to assign to which

Faders for both Single Precision and Double Precision situations.

MSB value indicates the actual double parameter change. So sending a LSB will not change

the value, but only cache this value for later use when receiving the MSB part.

The LSB must therefore be sent before the MSB.
