Tab. 3.1: The effect algorithms of the ULTRACOUSTIC

A very special feature of your ULTRACOUSTIC is its built-in multi-effects processor that creates a variety of first-class, studio-compatible algorithms. This effects module provides a total of 99 preset, organized in 23 different groups of effects. Each group comprises a number of presets with varying parameter settings and covering a broad spectrum of effects and effects combinations.

The range of effects provided consists of single, parallel and dual effects. The single and parallel effects provide an effect or effects combination for both channels. The dual effects allow you to give each channel its own effect.

Use the four PRESET buttons to store one effects program each, including the mix ratio adjusted with the EFFECT controls (original vs. effect signal for both channels). To store a preset selected with the PROGRAM control, simply press one of the four PRESET buttons for about 2 seconds, until its associated LED lights up.

To recall the four presets stored, press one of the PRESET buttons or one of the four buttons on the enclosed footswitch.

3.1 MIDI control

With its built-in MIDI interface you can control the ULTRACOUSTIC via MIDI, for example, to select effects from a MIDI sequencer (studio), or from a master keyboard or MIDI footcontroller (live).

Connect the MIDI IN jack of your ULTRACOUSTIC to the MIDI OUT jack of a MIDI footcontroller. Now, enable the MIDI functions on your ULTRACOUSTIC by pressing the PRESET buttons #3 and #4 for about two seconds: the two control LED’s of PRESET buttons #3 and #4 start flashing, the right decimal point in the display lights up. Select a MIDI channel with the PROGRAM control (1 through 16, “on” = Omni, “OF” = inactive) and quit the menu by pressing either one of the PRESET buttons. “Omni” mode means that your ULTRACOUSTIC receives and processes MIDI information on all MIDI channels. Of course, you should select the same channel both on your MIDI footcontroller and ACX1000 (see MIDI footcontroller user’s manual).

You can select presets via MIDI using program change commands. When you send program change command #127, the effects module of your ACX1000 will be bypassed, i.e. you will hear no effect. As is usual with MIDI program change commands, program change #0 corresponds to program #1, and program change #1 to program #2, etc. (see table 4.1 in the appendix). The program change numbers 99 through 102 select the preset stored for the four PRESET buttons. After changeover the preset is activated immediately, i.e. it will not be affected by previously adjusted bypass settings.
