You use this page together with page SmpCtl1 to set up the sample’s controller matrix.
The matrix determines how selected MIDI controllers operate on the sample’s playback.
You use SmpCtl1 to set each matrix entry’s Device and Function. You use this page
(SmpCtl2) so set each entry’s Type and Range.
Refer to the explanation of SmpCtl1 (☞210) for a conceptual illustration of the matrix.
Knob 1 Change Page Select P/S
• Turn the knob to change to a different page within the MIDI/CTRL function. Avail-
able pages are: RCh&Alt, SmpCtl1, SmpCtl2 (this page), and Vel&PB.
• Push the knob to move to the Program/Sample Selection screen. (☞95)
Knob 2 Matrix# = 1,...,6
Selects the matrix entry for editing. You can use the matrix to set up six controllers.
Each matrix entry sets up a different controller.
Knob 3 Type = +offset, -/+offset
The setting determines how the A3000 converts and applies the control-change value
received from the controller.
When you move a controller at a MIDI device, the controller transmits a control-change
value indicating the magnitude of the movement. The transmitted values always range
from 0 to 127.
Upon receiving the value, the A3000 converts it as specified here, and then applies it to
the parameter selected by the Function entry (☞212). The conversion determines how
strongly (and in which direction) the parameter changes in response to the controller’s
movement.
Note that the conversion also depends on the “range” value, which you set using Knob
4 (see below).
+offset The A3000 converts the received value (0 to 127) to a corre-
sponding value in the range {0 to range}, and adds the result to
the target parameter. Notice that the resulting offset is therefore
always positive (or always negative, depending on the Range
sign; see below). In other words, the controller can offset the
target parameter in one direction only.
