Experiment With the Controllers
Once your breath controller has been connected and calibrated, you’re ready to get a
feel for the type of expressive control it provides. Try selecting different voices and
playing them using the keyboard, breath controller, pitch wheel, and modulation wheel 1.
To try out the foot controller as an alternative to the breath controller for breath
control, unplug the breath controller and try playing different voices using the foot
controller (the foot controller must be plugged into the FOOT CONTROLLER 2 jack).
Up to this point we’ve described a few simple experiments that should help you to
become familiar with the VL Version 2 system. More detailed controller experiments are
described in section 5 — “Experiments With the Controllers”. We recommend that you
try those experiments for a more in-depth appreciation of the instrument’s unmatched
musical and expressive potential.
