11. Additional Controls
SoundEditor offers additional remote controllers functions for the PC3: a Virtual Piano (V-
Piano), Control Change Sliders (CC Sliders), and the ability to play the PC3 from the computer
keyboard. These functions allow you to remotely control the PC3‟s keyboard and assignable
controllers from within SoundEditor (handy if the PC3 is located more than an arm‟s reach
away from the computer). These functions are located in the Options menu:
V-Piano
The V-Piano provides a way to play the PC3 remotely using the mouse. When you press a key
on the virtual keyboard, the corresponding MIDI „Note On‟ message will be sent to the PC3.
The note information will be displayed in red on the bottom left side of the keyboard, along with
the MIDI channel and velocity information:
The „Vel‟ Up/Down control on the far right of the V-Piano keyboard adjusts the note velocity
(values from 1 to 127). The Midi channel is changed by clicking on the label just above the
Velocity label and choosing from the popup contextual menu.
The virtual Pitch Bend and Mod Wheels can be used to control Pitch and Modulation functions
as you play.
