Using control changes to operate AW4416 parameters In version 2.0, AW4416 parameters can be assigned to control changes, so that AW4416 operations can be recorded/played back on a MIDI sequencer or other external MIDI device. s Assigning a parameter to a control change 1 Press the [MIDI] key ¡ [F4] (CTL Asgn.) key. The MIDI screen CTL Asgn. page added in version 2.0 will appear. In this page you can assign AW4416 internal parameters to control change numbers. Each part of the screen has the following function. 1 2 2 Move the cursor to the CTL CHG. numerical box, and use the [DATA/JOG] dial to select the control change number that you want to assign. 3 Move the cursor to the various fields in the PARAMETER area, and use the [DATA/JOG] dial to set the parameter and its values. For the available parameters and values, refer to page 28. Parameter 1 Parameter 3 Parameter 2 3 A CTL CHG. (Control change number) Move the cursor to this area and use the [DATA/ JOG] dial to select a control change number from the range of 0-95 and 102-119. B PARAMETER This area shows the parameter that is assigned to each control change. In the left column (parameter 1), select the type of parameter that you want to control. In the center and right columns (parameters 2/3), specify the values required for that parameter. Control change numbers to which no parameter has been assigned will be displayed as "NO ASSIGN." C INITIALIZE This button resets the control change assignments to the default state. Tip! For details on the parameters assigned to each control change number when the AW4416 is in the default state, refer to page 30. Tip! Of the parameters that can be assigned, channel fader, AUX send, [ON] key, EQ, and pan operations can be recorded in automix. By using automix to record these operations, and using your MIDI sequencer to record operations of the remaining parameters, you can minimize the amount of MIDI messages that are transmitted and received between the AW4416 and your MIDI sequencer. Control change numbers 0 and 32 are defined as "Bank Select" (messages used to switch the voice banks of a synthesizer, etc.). On some MIDI sequencers, bank select messages are handled differently than other control changes, and therefore may not be suitable for use in parameter operations.
