Programming the REMOTE jack for Incrementing Programs. Art Pro Audio Multiverb Alpha 2.0 | Manualzz

Using this method of editing, you select the desired patch on the keyboard or foot pedal, and then select the desired PRESET on the MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0 for that sound. You can do this while you are listening to the MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0.

When used with a keyboard or other device which sends MIDI PROGRAM CHANGE messages, MPT editing is simplified. We will edit the MPT for MIDI numbers 2 and

3, to recall presets 96 and 1. Once again it is assumed the MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0

has not had its MPT edited.

The keyboard/controller MIDI OUT must be connected to the MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0's

MIDI IN jack. The MIDI channel on the MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0 must be set to the same channel of the sending device, or the MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0's OMNI mode must be ON.

-Make sure you are in EDIT Mode. (Press EDIT button if not)

-Press the MIDI button.

-Turn the Encoder until you see in the LCD:

MIDI PROG= 2 > MIDI PROG= 2

PRESET= 3_ > PRESET= 96_

-Select a patch on the keyboard or MIDI foot pedal so [MIDI PROG= 2] is displayed

(select either preset #1, 2 or 3). If the MPT has never been edited, [PRESET=

3_] should be in the lower half of the display.

*The patch that causes [MIDI PROG= 2] to appear in the display is usually the second or third patch of the lowest numbered bank if the keyboard has banks of patches.

-Use the Encoder to select preset 96.

-With the keyboard change the MIDI PROGram number to 3.

-Set the PRESET to = 1.

MIDI PROG= 3 > MIDI PROG= 3

PRESET= 4_ > PRESET= 1_

You may continue to program each of the keyboard's patches (say there are 64) in this manner assigning any preset # to the patch.

In the previous examples four of the MPT entries were edited. You may edit the entire MPT if desired.

INCREMENT PROGRAM

If you do not have access to a MIDI controller and you wish to change between

PRESETs easily, you may want to edit the MPT for incrementing through a sequence of presets. Example 3 illustrates how this is done.

The sequence programmed in Example 3 may be accessed from the front panel. A more useful way of using a programmed sequence is to access the sequence using the

REMOTE jack and a momentary footswitch. To access these presets we must program the REMOTE JACK to increment the programs. You can only increment up through the programs. Example 4 describes how program the REMOTE jack to sequence through the ten presets set up in Example 3 with a footswitch. Example five shows how to program the REMOTE jack for normal bypass operation.

EXAMPLE 3

Setting up a preset sequence including a bypass preset.

If you need to change between presets quickly without scanning or MIDI, this procedure will be to your advantage. As in the other examples, editing the MPT is

42

the key. In this example we will edit the MPT to sequence through ten presets.

Ten is not the limit. You may program a sequence of 127 presets if you wish.

These presets will be in the order: 60, 151, 96, 1, 151, 35, 1, 69, 100 and 61.

Notice that we repeated some presets and included preset 100 which is set up from the factory as a bypass preset (no effects stored in it). Remember you can assign any preset to a MIDI number including using a preset at multiple locations. Using an empty preset as a bypass enables you to select no effect eliminating the need

to bypass the unit from the front panel and then continuing on with an effect preset next in the chain. NOTE: If your Mix is set for only 100% EFX, no signal will pass through the MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0.

-Make sure you are in EDIT Mode. (Press EDIT button if not)

-Press the MIDI button.

-Press the Value button, use the Encoder to change the display to:

MIDI PROG= 0 > MIDI PROG= 0

PRESET= 1_ > PRESET= 60_

-change between the upper and lower lines, changing the values as needed.

*MIDI program #'s will be 0 thru 9.

*follow the procedure in Example 1 if you're stuck!

EXAMPLE 4

Programming the REMOTE jack for Incrementing Programs

Program the REMOTE 1 jack on the rear panel so you may use a footswitch to increment through a desired set of presets, operate as a normal bypass jack, or trigger the Sampler. Remember, you may only increment up when using a footswitch and the sequence cycles through to the beginning.

-Make sure you are in EDIT Mode. (press EDIT button if not)

-Press the UTILITY button. Change the display to read [REMOTE SWITCH 1] in the top half and [= BYPASS ON/OFF] in the bottom half.

-Press the Value button.

-Use the ENCODER to change the number to 9.

*You have just programmed the MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0 to sequence through the ten presets set in Example 3 when using a momentary footswitch plugged into the

REMOTE 1 jack.

REMOTE SWITCH 1

= INCR PROGS 9

NOTE: To change this to decrement presets, program the REMOTE 2 jack for decrement following the above example.

REMOTE SWITCH 2

= DECR PROGS 9

EXAMPLE 5

Adding Performance MIDI to an existing preset.

43

In this example we are going to add PM to preset 79, NEW BLUES GTR. The effect parameter we will control is: CHO:WIDTH, the width of the chorus. The intended controller will be MC 4, Foot Controller. Now when the MIDI controller is used, the width control will change from 50% to 100%.

-Recall preset 79.

-Press the EDIT button.

-Press the Preset button and use the Encoder to select preset 120. -Press the

Store button.

*You've just copied #79 to location 120.

-Press the ADD EFFECT and turn the Encoder until you see [ADD:MIDI CONTRL?].

-Press the ENTER button.

*You have just added a MIDI controller to the preset.

-Press the Param button four times.

-Press the Value button.

-Use the Encoder to select [CHO:LEVEL = 100%]

-Press the Value button again, DON'T CHANGE THIS VALUE.

-Press the Value button again.

-Use the Encoder to change the value to 50%.

-Press the Value button one more time!!!!

-DON"T CHANGE THE SETTING

-Press the STORE button.

*Press the EDIT Mode button to exit Edit Mode.

You now have edited a Factory Preset 79 for PM control of the chorus width. When you use the left pedal on the X-15 your chorus level will change from 50% to

100%. You may edit any existing preset to be controlled by PM. Remember to UNLOCK the preset to STORE your changes and then re-lock the presets.

EXAMPLE 6

Controlling the Overall Level of an ALPHA 2.0 Preset.

To control the level on each preset, you must add the two MIDI controllers set up like this TO EACH PRESET and control the Dry and Efx parameters of the Mix with one foot controller.

We will use Factory Preset 79 again for this example. If you have completed

Example 5, adding PM to a Factory Preset, copy Factory Preset 79 into location

121.

-Recall preset 79.

-Press the EDIT button.

-Press the Preset button and use the Encoder to select preset 121.

-Press the Store button.

*You've just copied #79 to location 121.

-Press the ADD EFFECT button and them turn the Encoder until you see [ADD:MIDI

CONTRL?].

-Press the ENTER button.

-Add another MIDI controller

-Press the Param button eight times.

-Press the Value button twice.

-Use the Encoder to select [MC 11:EXP. CTRL.]

-Press the Value button again, DON'T CHANGE THIS VALUE.

-Press the Value button again, DON'T CHANGE THIS VALUE EITHER.

-Press the Value button.

-Use the Encoder to select [MIX:EFX = 75%]

44

-Press the Value button once. .

-Use the Encoder to select [MC 11:EXP. CTRL.]

-Press the Value button again, DON'T CHANGE THIS VALUE.

-Press the Value button again, DON'T CHANGE THE VALUE.

-Press the Value button.

-Press the STORE button.

Now, when the right pedal on the X-15 is used, the output volume of the ALPHA 2.0

changes from 0 to 100%. You may change the amount of minimum and maximum level the foot pedal controls by setting the Low and High Values (3rd and 4th screen) when adding the MIDI controller.

APPENDIX C

MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0 MIDI MESSAGES

The MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0 responds to the following messages:

Program change:

Cxh ddh x = channel number 0h to Fh for channels 1 to 16 dd = program number 0h to 7Fh or 0 to 127

If the channel the MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0 is set to is not off and the channel matches (either it is the same number or OMNI is on), then the unit will look up the preset in the MIDI Program Table (MPT) and recall the corresponding preset.

Channel Mode message for OMNI on/off

Bxh 7Ch 0h : OMNI Mode Off

Bxh 7Dh 0h : OMNI Mode On x = channel number, 0h to Fh for channels 1 to 16

If the channel matches the units's channel number, it will set the OMNI mode accordingly. The current OMNI mode does not affect this message, the channel must match regardless of current OMNI mode.

SYSTEM EXCLUSIVE MESSAGES message format: general: <System Exclusive Status> <ART ID> <channel>

<product ID> <message ID> <message...> <EOX> in hex: F0h 1Ah 0xh 06h <message ID> <message...> F7h

F0h - System Exclusive status byte.

1Ah - ART manufacturer's ID number.

0xh - channel number, 0 to 0Fh.

11h - MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0 product id code.

F7h - End Of exclusive status byte.

Message ID values >= 40h are requests. A request is a message that when received by the MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0 causes a message to be sent by the MULTIVERB ALPHA

2.0.

0x is the channel number, 0 to 15 (00h to 0Fh). To the user, the channel number is displayed as 1 to 16.

Internally, presets are numbered 0 to 199. When a preset number is displayed, it is shown as 1 to 200. Any messages that refer to the MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0 preset number refer to the internal number, 0..199. Preset numbers are referenced in message with 2 data bytes, least significant 7 bits, then most significant bit in the lsb of the next byte. Example: preset 1 on the LCD is referenced with 00h

00h, and preset 200 is referenced with 47h, 01h.

When channel number is OFF and a front panel command for a dump is processed, the

MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0 sends a message coded for channel 1 (the lowest channel number).

46

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF MESSAGES

Set Bypass OFF: F0 1A 0x 11 03 00 00 F7

Set Bypass ON: F0 1A 0x 11 03 00 01 F7

This allows remotely setting the state of BYPASS in the MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0

without affecting anything else in the unit.

Request DUMP all presets: F0 1A 0x 11 4B F7

LOAD all presets: F0 1A 0x 11 0B <many bytes> F7

Dumps all presets in preset number order. No compression of the data is done.

Request MPT table: F0 1A 0x 11 4C F7

Set MPT table: F0 1A 0x 11 0C <128 * 2 bytes> F7

For each MIDI program number there is a corresponding MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0 preset number. Each entry (internally) is 0..199 and is sent as 2 bytes. First the least significant 7 bits, then the msb. This is done for each of the 128 MIDI program numbers.

When FX ON/OFF Enable is ON, you may use MIDI controller 84 to activate MIDI

Bypass.

APPENDIX G

USING THE MULTIVERB ALPHA 2.0 WITH AN X-15 ULTRAFOOT

When an ART X-15 ULTRAFOOT is used with the ALPHA 2.0, remote control of the parameters and the ability to turn on and off the effects themselves greatly extend the capabilities of the ALPHA

2.0. More than half of the ALPHA 2.0's factory presets are set up with MIDI controllers providing you instant access to the parameters with your X-15.

You do not need to reprogram the X-15 ULTRAFOOT for use with the

ALPHA 2.0. All programming and setup is done with the ALPHA 2.0.

Add a MIDI Controller to the ALPHA 2.0 preset and edit the parameters. The default settings allow for almost instantaneous use with both devices. Refer to the example in Appendix B, Adding

Performance MIDI to an Existing Preset.

To correctly hook up the two devices, two MIDI cables should be used (see the hookup diagram on the preceding page). Both the ALPHA

2.0 and X-15 "talk" to each other keeping their status' up to date.

When the X-15 is in Effect Mode, it will display which effects in the preset are active by lighting the associated pad's LED. If you add, delete, or change the status of an effect with the ALPHA 2.0, the X-15 will monitor and display (or not display if you remove or turn off an effect) the change.

All of the presets in the ALPHA 2.0 with MIDI controllers assigned to them are set to be controlled by MIDI Controllers (MC) 4 and 11.

On the X-15, the left expression controller is MC 4 and the right pedal is MC 11. When adding a MIDI controller to a preset in the

ALPHA 2.0 the default value for the MIDI controller (screen 2,

CONTROLLER IS) is MC 4, Foot Controller. To select another MIDI controller, use the Encoder to change the Value while editing this screen.

Every time a message is sent from the X-15 to the ALPHA 2.0, the

Alpha's LCD displays the message sent. Effects on and off messages and real time pedal values will be displayed, program change messages (preset changes) will not be displayed. For effects on and off messages to be displayed the X-15 must be in Effect Mode.

Anytime either foot controller is moved, the ALPHA 2.0 displays the parameter name and value.

To control the output level of any ALPHA 2.0 preset, assign two

MIDI controllers to the preset, use one pedal as the controller, and control the Dry and Efx parameters of the Mix. See Example 6 in

Appendix B for setting up a preset for level control.
