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.

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
