NOTES
▌ SETTING UP MIDI SYNC FOR EXTERNAL GEAR
1. Ensure S-4 is connected to another MIDI device and the MIDI channels
are aligned to the same.
2. Decide on which device will be the primary lead and which will be a
secondary follower.
3. Use the action button navigation or the (SELECT) Knob to scroll to the
desired option to change. To toggle the option On / Checked or Off /
Unchecked turn any of the 8 parameter knobs or tap [SELECT].
• CC CONTROL : On / Off. When On the S-4 will receive external CC
messages in order to control dened parameters.
• SYNC IN : On / Off. When On an external device can be used to
control the clock. The S-4 and its global tempo will respond to the
timing of the external clock. Manual tempo adjustments using the
(SELECT) knob will be ignored when Sync In is On and will be
available when Sync In is Off.
• SYNC OUT : On / Off. When On an external device will respond to
the S-4 clock. The S-4 global tempo will be used by the external
device. Manual tempo adjustments using the (SELECT) knob will be
available when Sync In is Off and and external clock is used when
Sync In is On.
• START / STOP : On - The S-4 recognises and acts upon the
incoming start / stop commands from the connected MIDI Device
sending transport. This will control the Play/Stop tracks button.
When off the S-4 Transport will be independently controlled by the
Play/Stop button.

Channel 1
T-1 will control the S-4 Playback. For example the sequencer will trigger the
Poly. Tracks will play/stop from T-1 Transport control.
S-4 Follower
7.4 MIDI CC
MIDI Continuous Control Change Messages, also shortened to CC, are
used in the S-4 to control parameters from external gear. CC Messages are
mapped using a specic CC number. Parameter changes are then
communicated over a value range of 0-127 which then affects the
destination parameter value based on its own designated range. Typically
an external MIDI controller knob or fader will control the S-4 parameter.
