MIDI Control – Channel Based MIDI MessagesWaldorf Q User’s Manual 150Pitchbend MessagesThe Q sends and receives Pitchbend Messages with a resolution of 14 bit. The pitchbend ranges arecontrolled by the Bend Range parameter in the Oscillator Edit menus. Pitchbend Messages can alsobe used as “Pitchbend” modulation source.Modulation WheelThe Q sends Modulation Wheel changes as Modulation Wheel MSB Message (Controller #1).Modulation Wheel LSB (Controller #33) is not sent when the Modulation Wheel is turned but used tochange a particular sound parameter as you can read in the chapter “Influencing / Editing Soundsover MIDI” on page 151.The Q receives Modulation Wheel MSB Messages and evaluates them as “Modwheel” resp. “MW”modulation source.Breath Control MessagesThe Q receives Breath Control MSB Messages and evaluates them as “BreathCtr” modulation source.Foot Controller MessagesThe Q receives Breath Control MSB Messages and evaluates them as “Foot Ctr” modulation source.Channel Volume MessagesThe Q receives Channel Volume Messages (Controller #7) and scales the output of the respectiveSound to that value. The maximum Sound volume depends on the settings in the Sound, Instrumentand Multi, Channel Volume changes the volume relatively to these settings.Pan MessagesThe Q receives Pan Messages (Controller #10) and balances the two Filter outputs by that value. Avalue of 64 means that the Filter Pan settings are kept as they are while smaller values weigh thesignal to the left output and bigger values weigh the signal to the right output.Sustain Pedal MessagesThe Q receives Sustain Pedal Messages (Controller #64) and evaluates them as follows: if a valuegreater or equal than 64 is received, the “Key Pressed” envelope phases of all voices of the respectiveMIDI channel are played. If a value smaller than 64 is received, the “Key Off” envelope phases areplayed. Sustain Pedal Messages can also be used with the “Sust. Ctr” modulation source.Sostenuto Pedal MessagesThe Q receives Sostenuto Pedal Messages (Controller #65) and evaluates them as follows: if a valuegreater or equal than 64 is received, the “Key Pressed” envelope phases of the currently playingvoices of the respective MIDI channel are played. Voices that are played afterwards are not affectedby the Sostenuto Pedal message. If a value smaller than 64 is received, the “Key Off” envelope phasesof the affected voices are played.FootswitchesThe Footswitches send value 0 (off) and 127 (on) on the controller numbers they are set to in theGlobal menu. There is no dedicated “MIDI Footswitch Message” so the reception of the MIDIMessages they originally generated depends on the settings of the parameters of the current Sound. |
