Recording/Playback of a Fade
The Finalizer Express digital fader is transmitted by MIDI. This
makes it possible to record and playback fades of the Finalizer
Express. This is a step by step guide on how to record and
playback a fade with the Finalizer Express.
1. Connect The MIDI Out of the Finalizer Express to the
MIDI In of your MIDI recording device and vice versa.
2. Make sure that your MIDI device and the Finalizer
Express are set to the same MIDI channel
(See “Controlling the digital fader via MIDI”).
3. Make sure that the “Ext Control” of the Finalizer
Express is set to Off (meaning that the Fader knob is
used to control the digital fader).
4. Start the recording.
5. Perform the fade using the FADER knob.
6. Stop the recording.
Now you can edit or move the fade in your MIDI device before
playing it back.
7. Press the “Ext. Control” key to select “MIDI”.
8. Playback the fade from your MIDI device.
The fade can now be stored with the rest of your MIDI
commands.
A fade is always transmitted as controller #7 on the current MIDI
channel regardless of whether it is performed by the Fader knob
or the optional TC Master Fader.
