LIQUID-FOOT PRO SERIES MIDI FOOT CONTROLLER
Presets and IA Switches can be programmed to select a certain page of your choosing.
Perhaps on a certain preset- you want the Liquid-Foot to default to PAGE 0, while on
another preset you want it to default to Page 1. Perhaps you want to allow an IA switch to
toggle between the two pages at the press of a button. All these scenarios are available
with this command.
Programming is simple. Select an IA 2
nd
command within the preset or IA Switch of choice.
The parameter you select (either 0,1,2,3) will determine the PAGE (LAYER) to switch too.
Programming an IA 2
nd
command with 0 as the 2: data parameter will make sure the Liquid-
Foot is on page 0 (S1-S16) IA Switch layer. And so on.
Perhaps you want to use an IA switch to toggle between the pages. Lets assume IA Switch
S16/S32 will toggle back and fourth. Program S16 as a MOMENTARY switch and program a
single ON message as SPECIAL: IA 2
nd
: 1 (set as a special command of IA2nd with a
parameter of 1). This will switch the IA PAGE (Layer) to S17-S32. Now program S32 as a
MOMENTARY switch and program a single ON message as above, only select 0 as the
parameter so that it switches to Page 0 (S1-S16). Now- when you press S16 (Page 0), it will
send a special command and switch the controller to page 1. Once on Page 1, if you press
S32 (physically S16), it will send a special command switching to Page 0, or back to S1-S16.
LINKING IA COMMANDS FROM ONE IA SWITCH TO ANOTHER
There may be times when you wish to program a Preset or an IA Switch to trigger the
commands of another IA Switch. This special function will allow you to select the IA Switch,
and the state (ON or OFF) messages that you wish to trigger.
Selecting a switch and a state are fairly simple. Parameter 2 is calculated as follows:
TO TRIGGER ON MESSAGES OF AN IA SWITCH:
Send the IA switch # as the parameter. This number can be between 1 and 32.
Therefore, if you set a parameter of 1, the special command will trigger all the
ON commands of IA Switch #1.
TO TRIGGER OFF MESSAGES OF AN IA SWITCH:
Send the IA switch # + 64 as the parameter. Therefore the parameter will be
between 65 (switch 1 + 64) through 96 (32 + 64) . If you set a parameter of 65,
the special command will trigger all the OFF commands of IA Switch #1.
