1 TYPE field
Enables you to select the type of event.
The following table lists the events you can select.
2 DESTINATION field
Enables you to select the rack for which you want to recall a library item. If EFFECT or
PREMIUM RACK is selected in the TYPE field, the rack number will be shown. If SCENE
is selected, this will indicate “- - -”, and no choice is available for this field.
3 LIBRARY NUMBER/LIBRARY TITLE field
Enables you to select the scene or library item to recall.
If SCENE or EFFECT is selected in the TYPE field, the LIBRARY TITLE is shown. If PREMIUM
RACK is selected, the LIBRARY NUMBER is shown.
4 OK button
Confirms the settings and closes the window.
Using control changes to control parameters
You can use MIDI Control Change messages to control specified events (fader/knob
operations, [ON] key on/off operations etc.) on the QL series console. This capability can be
used to record fader and key operations on a MIDI sequencer or other external device, and
play back this data later.
You can use Control Changes to control events in either of the following two ways.
Using Control Changes
This method uses typical Control Changes (control numbers 1–31, 33–95, 102–119). You can
freely assign an event to each control number.
Using NRPN (Non Registered Parameter Number)
This method uses a special type of Control Change messages called NRPN.
NRPN uses Control Change numbers 99 and 98 to specify the MSB (Most Significant Byte)
and LSB (Least Significant Byte) of the parameter number, and subsequently-transmitted
Control Change messages of Control Change number 6 (or 6 and 38) to specify the value of
that parameter.
The event assigned to each combination of MSB and LSB is pre-defined, and cannot be
changed.
NOTE
For details on the events assigned to NRPN messages, refer to the QL Data List (End of Manual).
NOTE
Assignments to control numbers are maintained as settings for the entire system, rather than for
individual scenes.
NO ASSIGN No assignment
SCENE Scene memory recall operations
EFFECT Effect library recall operations
PREMIUM RACK
Recall operations for the corresponding Premium
Rack library
STEP
1. Connect the QL series console to an external device.
2. As described in “Basic MIDI settings” on page 161, select the ports and MIDI
channels that will be used to transmit/receive control changes.
3. Press the CONTROL CHANGE tab in the MIDI/GPI screen.
4. Switch Control Change transmission/reception on or off, select transmission/
reception mode, and set echo output.
5. To change the event assignment for each control number, press the desired event
in the list and select an event type and the recall target.
