Global Parameters – Global Menu
127 Waldorf microQ User´s Manual
Global Parameters
Global parameters are settings that affect the microQ’s general response. They are valid for all
programs but might be overridden by other more specific settings. Global parameters are stored
automatically when you modify them, so you are not required to save them manually.
The Global menu of the microQ Keyboard contains additional parameters.
Global Menu
All Global parameters are located in the Global Menu. Press the Master section’s Global button and
select the various pages with the Page Dial or by pressing the Global button again. The menu
parameters are changed with the corresponding knobs below the display.
GlobalChn|SysEx ID
01 !000 (00)
Global Chn - Global MIDI Channel omni / 1…16
Sets the basic send and receive channel for the microQ. This setting is valid for all Sound programs
and for Instruments of a Multi program whose Channel parameter is set to global. If omni is selected,
the microQ sends on channel 1 and receives on all channels.
Please use omni only for test purposes if you wish to check the basic MIDI send and receive
functionality. As soon as you know that the microQ receives MIDI properly, set Global MIDI
Channel to any other value than omni.
Sysex ID 0…126
Defines the device identification number for system exclusive data transmission. The number in
brackets shows the current ID in hexadecimal number format.
System Exclusive data contains no MIDI channel information so this ID is used to distinguish between
several microQs, if you have more than one Waldorf microQ in your setup.
Transmission will only be executed successfully if the sender and receiver are set to the same ID. ID
127 is a so-called broadcast ID that addresses all connected microQs. The microQ can receive Sysex
data broadcast from other devices, but cannot send it itself. This function is limited to special
computer software.
Operating System upgrades are stored with a Device ID of 127, so you don’t need to change
the Sysex ID on your microQ when you want to upgrade it to a newer OS.
If you have only one microQ, leave Sysex ID on 0. There is no need at all to change this
setting to any other value.
After you have bought your 128th microQ, please contact Waldorf-Music AG. You will
receive a personal device number that authorizes you to have dinner with our Managing
Director.
