MIDI Module
(RTAS Only)
The MIDI module lets you assign MIDI note
numbers and continuous controllers to the Pre-
sets and User Knobs of the Sound, Playback, Ef-
fect, and XFade modules.
MIDI Performance Mode
In Performance mode, the MIDI module dis-
plays a one octave on-screen keyboard. Octave
Transpose buttons lets you shift the focus of the
on-screen keyboard to any octave (from MIDI
note number 1 to 127).
On-Screen Keyboard
In Performance mode, the MIDI module pro-
vides an on-screen keyboard that can be used to
assign MIDI note numbers to store and recall the
current state of Synchronic settings. You can
also recall stored combinations of Synchronic
presets and settings by clicking the correspond-
ing key on the on-screen keyboard.
Octave (OCT) Up and Down Arrow Buttons Click
the left arrow to transpose the on-screen key-
board down an octave or click the right arrow to
transpose the on-screen keyboard up an octave.
This lets you readily assign Synchronic preset
snapshots to any and all octaves of your MIDI
keyboard.

Pre-Mapped MIDI Keys
Synchronic provides a default MIDI keyboard
mapping for triggering Sound, Playback, Effect,
and Crossfade presets.
Synchronic’s default MIDI key mappings are:
• MIDI note numbers 12–23 are reserved for
custom snapshots (see “Assigning MIDI
Keys” on page 43).
• MIDI note numbers 24–35 select Sound
presets A1–A12.
• MIDI note numbers 36–47 select Sound
presets B1–B12.
• MIDI note numbers 48–59 select Playback
presets 1–12.
• MIDI note numbers 60-71 select Effect pre-
sets 1–12.
• MIDI note numbers 72-83 select XFade pre-
sets 1–12.
Since there are twelve presets for each mod-
ule, you can comfortably map your MIDI
keyboard controller to the presets for each
module by octaves.
