WAMPLER METAVERSE

MIDI CC MESSAGES

Every Program can be controlled by sending CC Messages to 

the device from a compatible MIDI controller as described in the 

following table.

CC Function

CC no. 

Value (0-127)

Description

Delay State

1

0=off, 1-127=on

Turns the delay on/off

Delay Program

2

0-10

Selects the delay program; 

Send the corresponding MIDI CC value to select the 

delay program:

0 - ANLG - Analog style delay 

1 - WET - Modulated analog delay 

2 - BBD - Bucket Brigade delay 

3- JET - Analog flanger delay 

4 - DOC - Wampler ‘The Doctor’ 

5 - FTE -  Wampler ‘Faux Tape Echo’ 

6 - ETH - Wampler ‘Ethereal’ delay  

7 - MOD - Digital flanger delay 

8 - SPC - Space Echo delay 

9 - TAPE - Multi head Tape delay 

10 - DIGI - Digital delay

Delay Time (knob)

3

0-127

Emulates the Delay Time knob, 25ms to 2000ms

Delay Feedback (knob)

4

0-127

Emulates the Delay Feedback knob

Tone (knob)

5

0-127

Emulates the Tone knob

Mix (knob)

6

0-127

Emulates the Output Mix knob;
0 = dry 100% + wet 0%

95 = dry 100% + wet 100%

127 = dry 0% + wet 100%

Level (knob)

7

0-127

Emulates the Output Level knob;
0 = -6dB

63 = 0dB

127 = +6dB

Mod Depth (knob)

8

0-127

Emulates the Mod Depth knob

Mod Rate (knob)

9

0-127

Emulates the Mod Rate knob

Mod Feedback (knob)

10

0-127

Emulates the Mod Feedback knob - only affects JET 

and MOD Programs

TAPE Mode

11

1-15

Selects head combination for TAPE Program -> 

Value range selects heads in binary representation:

1000 (binary) = 8 (decimal) = head 1 (quarter)

0100 (binary) = 4 (decimal) = head 2 (dotted eighth)

0010 (binary) = 2 (decimal) = head 3 (eighth)

0001 (binary) = 1 (decimal) = head 4 (sixteenth)

See Note on Page 12 for full list of combinations

ETH Mode

12

0-3

Select the delay mode for the Ethereal Delay
0 = quarter

1 = q quarter triplet overlay

2 = q dotted eighth overlay

3 = q dotted eighth

CC Function

CC no. 

Value (0-127)

Description

Subdivision

13

0-14

Sets the tap tempo subdivision ((0-7 are accessible via 

the front panel) Select the Subdivision setting for the 

Tap Tempo Switch and MIDI Clock
0 = Quarter

1 = Dotted Eighth

2 = Eighth

3 = Sixteenth

4 = Half

5 = Whole

6 = Dotted Quarter

7 = Triplet Quarter

8 = Dotted Sixteenth

9 = Dotted Half

10 = Dotted Whole

11 = Triplet Sixteenth

12 = Triplet Eighth

13 = Triplet Half

14 = Triplet Whole

Delay Time (high ms)

14

0-15

A Time High message followed by a Time Low message 

will set the delay time to a specific ms value. It is possi-

ble to set very specific delay times (with 1ms resolution) 

using two sequential MIDI commands.
First, send CC 14 with the high byte (calculated below)
Second, send CC 15 with the low byte (calculated 

below)

Delay Time (low ms)

15

0-127

Each message is a 7-bit value, and sent together will 

be interpreted as a 14-bit value. To set a specific delay 

time in milliseconds using MIDI CC 14 and 15:
1. Determine high byte: take delay time in 

milliseconds and divide by 128. The number left of 

the decimal is the high byte. (eg. 400ms delay time -> 

400/128 = 3.125 -> high byte = 3
2. Determine low byte: multiply the number right of 

the decimal by 128. This is the low byte.

(eg. 400ms delay time -> 400/128 = 3.125 -> 0.125 -> 

0.125 * 128 = 16 -> low byte = 16
3. Send MIDI CC 14 val=highbyte (3) first, and then 

MIDI CC 15 val=lowbyte (16) second. 
4. After receiving both bytes, the device will update 

the delay time to match the received messages.

Tap Tempo

81

0

Emulates the tap tempo function of the tap tempo 

switch

Preset Decrement

82

0-127

Decrements the Preset number by <value>

Preset Increment

83

0-127

Increments the Preset number by <value>

Tempo Switch Mode

84

0=tap tempo

1-127=Preset inc

Selects the mode of the tempo switch

Trails Mode

85

0=off, 1-127=on

Turns on/off trails mode

MIDI Clock Enable

99

0=off, 1-127=on

Enable or disable the MIDI Clock Sync:

0 = ignore MIDI Clock

1-127 = set tempo based on MIDI Clock
