[. . . ] Layering Internal and External Programs 2. Splitting an Internal and External Program 3. Assigning the Slider to Control Only the SP 4. Controlling the Volume for the SP and External Module Separately 5. [. . . ] Although this might be fine in some circumstances, often you wonÕt want this. For example, with a piano and bass split, you will probably want the piano part to sustain, but not the bass. Press the Column Select button once to select column 2. Then press the Row Select button once to Switch Pedal Right. It should be set to 64, which is Sustain. Since we are currently on the piano zone, we will leave this zone set to 64. Press the Edit button once so that the Right Zone LED is lit. As we did before, the fastest way to reach off is to type 0, then Enter, then press the Down button once. Now when you play the keyboard and use the Sustain pedal, only the piano should sustain. Go through step 6 in tutorial #1 to save your Setup. If you started with Setup 1, you will probably want to save it to a different location number. SP Made Easy 3. However, you should be careful when using this ribbon, especially for volume. If you are moving your finger over the top half of the ribbon to send mod wheel messages and your finger goes just below the center point, then you will be sending a high value for volume and the volume could jump suddenly. SP Made Easy 5. Assigning Volume to a Continuous Control Pedal By default, the Continuous Control pedal j ack is assigned to MIDI controller #4 (also called Foot). Although some MIDI instruments may respond to controller #4 for volume changes, many will not (including the SP sound engine itself). If you want to use a pedal for volume control, you will need to program that parameter for controller #7, similar to how we programmed the A ribbon for volume in the previous tutorial. Start with the Setup you created in Tutorial #1 or 2. Press Column Select until the Middle Column LED is lit. Press Row Select until Control Pedal is selected (LED blinking). If you only want to use the pedal to control one of your zones, press Edit till you have selected the zone you want. If you want to have the pedal control both zones, then select the other zone and repeat assigning it to #7. Keep in mind that unless you previously changed it, you still have the Control Slider assigned to Volume. [. . . ] For example, you might like to switch a function with a button instead of a pedal. The programming steps are exactly the same you simply choose a different controller. The thing to remember is that the controllers fall into two different types. Switch controllers are designed to have only two states - On or Off. [. . . ]
