3.4.9 MIDI control
Most of the knobs, sliders, and switches on the Analog Factory can be manipulated
with external MIDI controllers, and this is ideally the way they should be controlled, in
order to get a high level of usability. Before anything else, the user should make sure
that the MIDI device being used is correctly connected to the computer, and that the
sequencer or the Analog Factory application is correctly configured to receive MIDI
events coming from the device.
Every instance of the Analog Factory receives MIDI events transmitted on a given
channel. This reception channel is defined in a global manner for the synthesizer,
either in the sequencer, or in the standalone Analog Factory application. On the
reception channel, the Analog Factory can receive different MIDI controls.
It is possible to choose a reception control for each knob, which means assigning an
external controller to a given parameter. For this, one should click on the knob
being used while holding down the Control key. A configuration window appears
and offers the choice of a MIDI control number. The user can also click on the
«Learn» button and move one of the physical MIDI controllers. In this case, the
control number will be detected and configured automatically. To deactivate the MIDI
control of a knob, simply uncheck the «Active» option in the MIDI control window.
