A keystroke in the current Zone whose velocity — after it has been scaled and offset —
is below the minimum does not generate a Note On. Neither does a keystroke whose
velocity after processing is above the maximum. These parameters are useful for “velocity
switching”—having a key play different sounds depending on how hard you strike it.
The values can be anywhere from 1 to 127. As with other parameters, zones can overlap or
be totally discrete, or be identical. Usually, Low Velocity will have a smaller value than High
Velocity, but you may also create a gap in velocity response, by setting High Velocity to a
lower value than Low Velocity.
Input Channel
The Input Channel allows remapping of incoming MIDI data through specified Zones.
Here’s how it works:
In Multi mode, an external MIDI device (such as a keyboard or sequencer) will play notes
of a single program by default (if the Global mode Local Keyboard Channel parameter is
set to None, see
Local Kbd Chan (Local Keyboard Channel) on page 9-24
The played program will be on a Zone that has a Channel parameter (on the MAIN page)
which matches the channel on which the external MIDI device is transmitting. (If no Zone’s
Channel parameter matches, the external device will play notes of the last program that was
using that channel in Program Mode or from a previously loaded Multi.)
When the Program of a Multi Zone is played from an external MIDI device, Multi MIDI
parameters (most noticeably key range and transposition) will not be applied. If you want
these parameters applied, set the Input Channel parameter to match the channel on which
the external MIDI device is transmitting. See the Input Channel Settings section below for
details on setting an Input Channel. (To play the entire Multi from an external MIDI device,
see
Local Kbd Chan (Local Keyboard Channel) on page 9-24
.) When Local Keyboard
Channel is set to something other than None, the Input Channel parameter has no effect and
will appear in parentheses.
Input Channel basically has the same effect as Local Keyboard Channel, except you can
choose to play only one or some Multi Zones from an external device, instead of all Zones.
To play more than one Zone from an external device, set each desired Zone’s Input Channel
parameter to match the channel on which the external MIDI device is transmitting.
Input Channel Settings
When setting a MIDI channel number for the Input Channel parameter, channel 1 for
example, you can choose “1 L+M” or “1 M” (scroll past “16 L+M” to see all the choices.)
A channel number with a setting of “L+M” indicates that the zone will be playable from
the PC4 keyboard (L for Local) and from the external MIDI controller (M for MIDI.) A
channel number with a setting of “M” indicates that the zone will be playable only from the
