About The SOUND CONTROL Knobs

Changes made by the SOUND CONTROL knobs can be output
as MIDI messages via the MIDI OUT terminal as assigned using
the ASSIGN CTRL NO function.

The default assignments for the SOUND CONTROL knobs as
set at the factory are as follows:
Knob 1

73: Attack Time

Knob 2

80: General Purpose 5

Knob 3

72: Release Time

Knob 4

17: General Purpose 2

Knob 5

81: General Purpose 6

Knob 6

74: Brightness

Knob 7

71: Harmonic Content

Knob 8

18: General Purpose 3

• When the CS2x receives the data assigned to each SOUND

CONTROL knob from an external MIDI device, the
parameter printed on the panel for the knob will be affected.
For example, when the message for Brightness (74) is
received from an external device, the Attack Time will be
affected when the Brightness (74) is assigned to Knob 1 and
the Attack Time (73) is assigned to Knob 3.

• Both the data assigned to the Knob using the ASSIGN CTRL

NO function and parameter data as printed on the panel for
the Knob are sent to the internal tone generator when turning
the Knob. For example, when you turn Knob 1, both
Brightness (74) and Attack Time will be affected when
Brightness (74) is assigned to Knob 1.

The table below lists the Control Change Numbers and
Names that can be assigned to the various controllers.

n

General Purpose: With the CS2x, General Purpose 1 is for FC, 2 is
for Knob 4 (ASSIGN 1/DATA), 3 is for Knob 8 (ASSIGN 2), 4 is for
no setting, 5 is for Knob 2 (DECAY), 6 is for Knob 5 (HPF CUTOFF)
and 7 and 8 are for no setting.

Assigning The Controllers
