A few of the standardized MIDI Controller numbers are listed below.

0- MIDI Bank Chng MSB

1- Modulation Wheel

2- Breath Controller

3- Old DX7 Aftertouch

4- Foot Pedal

5- Portamento Time

6- Data Entry

7- Volume

8- Balance

9- Undefined

10- Pan

11- Expression

32 - MIDI Bank Chng LSB

64 - Sustain (on/off)

65 - Portamento (on/off)

66 - Sostenuto (on/off)

67 - Soft Pedal (on/off)

69 - Hold Pedal (on/off)

Only the E4K and E-Synth Keyboard have “Thumb Control.” On other Emulator units, the option is called Switch 3 Control.

About MIDI Controllers

You probably already know that each MIDI cable can carry up to 16 MIDI channels. Each of the 16 MIDI channels uses basically 3 types of messages; note on/off, program changes, and continuous controller messages.

Most MIDI keyboards, in addition to describing which note was played, also send realtime control information. Realtime control sources on the E4K and E-Synth Keyboard include such things as the pitch wheel, modulation wheel, control pedal, aftertouch, the two footswitches and the four realtime control sliders. All these controls are designed to give you more expression in your music.

Realtime controller information is sent on separate channels called continuous controller channels. There is a set of 128 continuous controller channels for each of the 16 MIDI channels. Some of the controller channels, such as Mod Wheel, volume, and pan have been standardized. For example, volume is usually sent on continuous controller channel #7.

Any continuous controller can be internally routed to any realtime modulation destination. The internal connections for a particular preset are completed in the Preset Edit menu.

The realtime controllers of the E4K and E-Synth Keyboard are transmitted out the MIDI port on the controller number you specify. Simply set the controller number of the slider (A-D) so that it matches the number on the receiving device. (Make sure the MIDI channels are the same too.) That's it!

On the E4K and E-Synth Keyboard the four realtime controller sliders are permanently assigned to MIDI controllers A-D.

_ MIDI continuous controller 7 is permanently assigned to volume and controller 10 is assigned to pan. Using these numbers for other functions could have unpredictable results.

O Assigning the MIDI Controller is only half of the connection. The controller's destination must be assigned in the Preset Edit, Cords submodule.

This menu allows you to assign up to 15 MIDI continuous controllers which will be received by EOS. The controllers on page one, as well as MIDI A-H on page two, are transmitted on the controller channel shown. These MIDI controller assignments set here are global and used by all presets. (Note: the names attached to the controllers such as “Pitch Control” and “Mod Control” are arbitrary. They can be assigned to any destination in the Preset Edit menu.)

v To Setup the MIDI Controllers

1.Press the Master button. The LED illuminates and the Memory Statistics screen appears.

2.Press the MIDI function key (F6). The MIDI Globals sub menu appears.

3.Press the Controls 1 or 2 function key (F2 or F3). The MIDI Controllers menus shown above appears.

4.Select the desired controller name using the cursor buttons or the indicated function keys.

5.Select the MIDI controller numbers using the Data Entry Control, or INC/DEC buttons.

6.Press the Exit button twice to return to the Memory Statistics screen.

To Change Program Banks via MIDI, send:

1)Continuous Controller 00 = 0

2)Cont. Controller 32 = Bank #

3)Program Change

This allows you to access presets higher than 128 via MIDI.

On your sequencer: Use Continuous Controller #32

Program Change commands will not be transmitted while EOS is in Multi mode.

Receive Program Change On/Off

With Receive Program Change turned on, EOS applies any incoming MIDI program change commands. If disabled (turned off), MIDI program changes are ignored by the system.

v To Turn Receive Program Change On/Off

1.Press the Master button. The LED illuminates and the Memory Statistics screen appears.

2.Press the MIDI function key (F6). The MIDI Globals sub menu appears.

3.Press the Prefs 2 function key (F5). The MIDI Preferences 2 submenu appears.

4.Move the cursor to Receive Program Change On/Off using the Cursor buttons or the F1 key.

5.Turn Receive Program Change On or Off using the Data Entry Control, or INC/DEC buttons.

6.Press the Exit button twice to return to the Memory Statistics screen.

Send Program Change On/Off

With the Send Program Change enabled, MIDI program change commands are sent to the MIDI Out port. If disabled, preset change commands are not delivered to the MIDI out port. Enable this feature if you want to send MIDI Program Change commands to another instrument or unit through the MIDI out connection on the Emulator.

v To Send Program Change:

1.Press the Master button. The LED illuminates and the Memory Statistics screen appears.

2.Press the MIDI function key (F6). The MIDI Globals submenu appears.

3.Press the Prefs 2 function key (F5). The MIDI Preferences 2 submenu appears.

4.Move the cursor to Send Program Change On/Off using the cursor buttons or the F2 key.

5.Turn Send Program Change On or Off using the Data Entry Control, or INC/DEC buttons.

6.Press the Exit button twice to return to the Memory Statistics screen.

O Make sure to send the two program changes as separate events. Some sequencers send only one program change if the two are located on the same beat.

Magic Load Preset

This feature lets a MIDI command load banks from the hard disk. The “Magic Preset” is a preset number that causes the next preset change command to load that bank number from the hard disk. Therefore, to load a hard disk bank over MIDI, send two program change commands, the Magic Preset and the bank number. As an example, if the Magic Preset is set at “P85,” and the Emulator receives a preset change command of 85 followed by a preset change command of 11, the Emulator loads bank 11 from the current drive and folder on the current hard disk. The Magic Preset can be turned off or set to any preset number from 0 to 127.

v To Set the Magic Preset

1.Press the Master button. The LED illuminates and the Memory Statistics screen appears.

2.Press the MIDI function key (F6). The MIDI Globals sub menu appears.

3.Press the Prefs 2 function key (F5). The MIDI Preferences 2 submenu appears.

4.Move the cursor to Magic Load Preset using the cursor buttons or the F3 function key.

5.Set the Magic Preset using the Data Entry Control, or INC/DEC buttons.

6.Press the Exit button twice to return to the Memory Statistics screen.
