Controller MIDI OUT channel (9-C)
MeloDICER not only receives MIDI Control Change messages. Each physical control element can send them as
well. With this feature, you can, i.e., record your movements and alterations in a MIDI sequencer or control a
second meloDICER to follow your chord progressions or rhythmical alterations. If you set this edit-parameter
below value 1, the feature is switched off. This marks the factory setting.
MIDI Clock Synchronization
With MEX3, meloDICER can not only be synchronized via analog clock signals as described in chapter "Internal
and external clocking" on page 7, but also directly by an external MIDI Clock signal on its MIDI input. By factory
default, this feature is turned off. You can activate it by turning on edit-parameter 8-D: MIDI CLOCK.
Please be aware that the MIDI Clock synchronization works in parallel to the analog CLK IN input. If this jack
receives an analog clock signal and MEX3’s MIDI IN receives MIDI Clock messages at the same time, meloDICER
will mix both clock sources, which may lead to unwanted behavior. So please ensure that you feed your
meloDICER with only one clock signal.
You may ask yourself why we allowed meloDICER to receive clocks from two
different sources at the same time. But this offers a big advantage. Let’s assume
you use the same modular system that contains the meloDICER/MEX3 in
different scenarios: In the studio you have a DAW and use MIDI synchronization,
in live situations you synchronize your setup from an analog trigger source.
You won’t have to change settings on your meloDICER each time the scenario
changes. Just use the analog CLK IN input for your live gig and MEX3’s MIDI IN
with a MIDI Clock signal in your studio environment.
