VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP1024P
The third page allows for configuring controller commands. On its right-hand side, the DISPLAY shows a
capital C (= Controller). The JOG WHEEL selects one of the following four controller modes:
Display Mode
0No controller data are transmitted.
1Controller data are received but not transmitted.
2Controller data are transmitted but not received.
3Controller data are transmitted and received.
Tab. 2.1: Controller settings
For further details see table 6.4 in section 6 APPENDIX.
The fourth page gives you access to the program change setup. The DISPLAY shows a capital P
(= Program). Here, too, four modes can be selected with the JOG WHEEL, as follows:
Display Modus
0Program Changes are not transmitted.
1Program Changes are received but not transmitted.
2Program Changes are transmitted but not received.
3Program Changes are transmitted and received.
Tab. 2.2: Program change settings
The fifth page of the MIDI menu shows the store enable flag represented by a capital S in the DISPLAY. The
value 0 disables the reception of controller #28, and therefore protects the user presets from being modified
via MIDI. Accordingly, the value 1 enables MIDI controller #28 so that you can modify or replace presets with
a remote MIDI device or a sequencer. In this case the actual settings will be stored directly to the location that
corresponds to the controller value.
+Attention! Since the store enable mode allows you to access memory locations directly via
MIDI, it is possible that stored presets will be replaced or altered if controller #28 messages are
sent on the same MIDI channel. The purpose of this mode is to facilitate MIDI backup and
restore operations without express confirmation at the VIRTUALIZERPRO. It is therefore
recommended to disable (flag = 0) this mode as soon as the intended data transfer has ended.
This is done automatically when you switch off the VIRTUALIZERPRO.
On the sixth and last page, you can access the System Exclusive functions. This is indicated by a d (for
dump) in the DISPLAY. To the left of this d a number is displayed:
- 0 means that no SYSEX data will be sent or accepted.
- 1 will enable the VIRTUALIZER PRO to receive data. When STORE is pressed the unit will wait for data,
this is shown by flashing dots (LEDs) in the DISPLAY. The MIDI key LED flashes signaling that SYSEX
data is being received.
- 2 will enable the VIRTUALIZER PRO to send a bulk dump. Start your MIDI sequenzer program and press
STORE on the DSP1024P to start the transmission.
To load these settings again, select 1, press STORE and start your MIDI sequenzer program.
+During a bulk dump, all audio functions of the VIRTUALIZER PRO will be deactivated.
If you press the IN/OUT key again on the sixth page, the VIRTUALIZERPRO quits MIDI setup mode. At all
times you can press any other key to leave the MIDI setup directly.
The full-featured MIDI implementation of the VIRTUALIZERPRO allows for easily integrating of the
VIRTUALIZERPRO into any MIDI system.
sMIDI IN
Any MIDI data sent to the VIRTUALIZERPRO (sequenzer, MIDI footswitch, etc.) is received via the MIDI IN
jack. For example, when you wish to use the VIRTUALIZERPRO as an effects devices for your guitar rack,
you can connect the MIDI IN jack to a MIDI footswitch that allows for selecting program presets. If your rack
includes another MIDI effects devices (e.g. a multi-effects processor), the data sent from the MIDI footswitch
