ll MIDI Implementation

The M3000 features full MIDI implementation giving you control of all parameters via an external

MIDI controller.

For a complete list of MIDI controller numbers please visit our web site at www.tcelectronic.com and go to the download section.

This is useful in numerous situations. Here is a post production example showing you how to utilize the full MIDI implementation of the M3000.

Exercise 4:

Two persons have a conversation in an elevator. The elevator stops, and the two persons step out into a hall still talking. You want to use a preset with a short decay time for the “elevator-scene” and another with a longer decay time for for the “hall-scene”. To simulate the surroundings of the two rooms you

need two presets simulating the two rooms.

To simulate the transition between the rooms you wish to lower the Output of the first preset while increasing the Output of the second preset. For this scenario you can use a MIDI remote device with manual faders. E.g. a Peavey PC 1600.

-Use the M3000 in an aux. setup with a mixer.

-Use the Parallel or Dual Input routing mode.

-Press I/O to enter the I/O display and select Mix=100%

-Recall the presets you wish to use in the two Engines.

-Go to the MIDI input section in the UTIL/MIDI menu and select MIDI channel 1 for Engine 1 and MIDI channel 2 for Engine 2. (Any channels could be used).

-Setup the two faders you wish to use on the MIDI controller. Assign e.g. fader 1 to MIDI channel 1 and MIDI fader 2

to channel 2.

-The MIDI range on fader 1 should be: 127-70 and on

Fader 2 the range should be set to: 70-127. Setting up the faders this way lets you decrease the Output of Engine 1 while increasing the Output of Engine 2. We found that for this specific operation the value of 70 gives a smooth cross-fade, but experiment with this setting according to your application.

-The MIDI controller number for the Output is 11 and

therefore both faders should naturally be assigned to controller no. 11.

Now you can perform a manual smooth fade between the two engines that exactly applies the scenario.
