Send Fader - Peavey PC 1600x Cover Manual De Instrucciones

chord. (If you're using 2-handed chords, you can plug a footswitch into the PC 1600x
ENTER button — see the 6th screen under UTILITY.)
NOTE: Any Note Off will erase the whole chord, even though the other notes may still be
sounding. If you play 3 notes, release 1 of them, then add another (still 3 sounding),
then press ENTER, the last note will be the only one recorded. Therefore, whenever
you are going to release any notes (because the chord is not yet complete) release all
the notes and retrigger the whole chord.
You will not see the note stream on the screen until after you press the ENTER button. The string will start with a
9x (where the x is the note record channel - 1), followed by the first note number, then the first note velocity, etc.
(Only one status byte — we're using running status here.) The velocity bytes can be changed to 'rv' so that the
incoming MIDI velocity (or fader position) gets substituted, allowing "dynamic" remote button playing. The following
screen shows a "dynamic" C major triad on Channel 1 (starting with Middle C):
So, now that we know how to trigger chords remotely, how do we turn them off? There are two ways to do it. The
easy and memory-efficient method is to use the MIDI All Notes Off command. This is a channelized command that
tells a synth/MIDI device to release all of the notes that were triggered on that channel. The command is defined
as continuous controller #123 (7Bh) with a data value of zero:
You can use prs/rls strings with the chord on the press, and the All Notes Off message (same channel, of course)
on the release. This will act like a normal "gated" triggering system (like a keyboard). You could also insert the All
Notes Off command in regular "press only" strings ahead of the chord, so pressing any button will release the
previous chord before playing its own chord (also letting you release the button without releasing the chord). Just
remember to program one of the buttons as an All Notes Off only, so you can silence the sound source when
needed.
You may find that the All Notes Off command doesn't work correctly in your system. There are some synths/MIDI
devices out there that do not respond to the All Notes Off message, and even some that respond to it incorrectly.
Some units will "kill" the notes abruptly instead of releasing them (as a Note Off would), and some others will apply
the message to all notes in the unit, not just the ones that were generated on the same MIDI channel as the All
Notes Off message itself. If your synth/devices respond correctly, great! If not, you'll have to send matching Note
Off commands after the Note On commands.
The PC 1600x won't record Note Off streams, but there is a fairly easy way to handle this for the "gated" mode.
After recording the chord into the press string, record the same chord into the release string, and then either
change the 9x at the start of the string to an 8x (which will give you control over release velocity), or change all the
velocity bytes to zero, which will convert the Note Ons to Offs.

SEND FADER

This feature allows you to send single messages (as opposed to "sweeps" of messages) from the faders. This is
desirable in many cases, like when sending very precise control changes into a sequencer.
When a fader's button is programmed as "Send Fader," moving the fader will not cause a MIDI transmission. You
will, however, see the data value on the top preset screen as you would normally, except that there will be an "M" in
the lower right corner of the LCD telling you that the fader is temporarily muted. After you move the fader to the
desired position, press the button to send the message (you will see the "M" disappear, signaling that the message
was sent).
You can also use the data wheel to change the value before it is actually sent, if it is linked to the fader (either
directly or with "last fader"). Pressing a "Send Fader" button will switch that fader to the "last fader moved" (even if
