P 44

AUX 3 controller number (default: 19)

- Sets which MIDI controller will control pin 3 of the thru socket if Aux 2+3 mode is selected
The following can be selected:

Timing Clock (inverted) [CL i]
Timing Clock (normal) [CLK]
Off

[oFF]

Pitch bend

[Pbd]

Velocity

[VEL]

Aftertouch

[AF t]

MIDI controllers

0-119


If timing clock is selected, the clock divide ratio (para #41) controls the relationship with MIDI clock.
CLK is a normal positive clock – most synths use this. CLi is an inverted clock, 5V at rest and gives a
pulse to zero to signal a clock – used on some synths such as Korg Monopoly.

P 45

AUX 3 threshold (default: 64)

Range

1 to 127

- Sets the threshold at which the AUX3 output will change from 0 to 5V or from 5V to 0.

If the MIDI data value of the selected controller is greater than or equal to the threshold then AUX3 will
be on (5V), otherwise it will be off (0V).

Note: Does not affect Timing Clock

P 46

Sysex Device Number (default :1)

Range

1 to 16

- Sets the sysex device number for this unit.


The USB SOLO will always respond to controller #64 (sustain pedal) with no adjustment necessary.

One intended use for Auxes 2+3 is to control the accent & slide of our 5 socket kit for the TB-303.

If you are not using a sequencer, you will need some way of linking your MIDI keyboard to the USB
SOLO. For the PC, we recommend a program called MidiOX, available from www.midiox.com

You can use program changes to load programs from memory if enabled in “Global Parameters”




If you wish to reset your USB SOLO, you can do so by turning the unit on whilst holding down all three
push buttons. This will return the USB SOLO’s settings to their default values. ‘Fd’ (factory defaults) will
momentarily be displayed when this has been done.




It may be that your synth is slightly out of tune, so it will be necessary to adjust the USB SOLO to
compensate for the tuning of your synth.

1, Firstly, ensure that your analogue synth is as in-tune as possible when playing from its own
keyboard. Do this by adjusting the tuning or pitch knob on your analogue synth whilst playing middle C
on both this and your master keyboard (or whatever you use for tuning reference). To do this, you may
need to disconnect the analogue synth from the USB SOLO.
