Multi Mode
Blofeld User´s Manual 26
• global means that the selected Instrument receives and
sends on the MIDI channel set up in the Global
menu. This setting is recommended for a Multi that is
intended for use in a live performance.
• omni means that the selected Instrument receives all
MIDI channels and sends on the MIDI channel set up
in the Global menu. This setting is not recommended.
Only use it for diagnostic purposes when you need to
know if the microQ receives any MIDI messages at all.
• 1…16 means that the selected Instrument receives and
sends on this MIDI channel. This setting is
recommended for a Multi that is intended for multi
track playback with a software sequencer.
Status mute, play
Status sets the send and receive status of the selected
part. This means whether the Instrument can be played by
MIDI or is disabled.
• mute means that the selected part is disabled.
• play means that the selected part can be played by
MIDI.
Transpose -48…+48
Transposes the Instrument in semitone steps. I.e., a value
of –12 means that the Instrument sounds one octave lower
than it was originally programmed.
Detune -64...+63
Detunes the Instrument in steps of 1/64th of a semitone.
✻ You can set up nice layered sounds with
Transpose
and Detune. Activate two Parts and
set their parameters to identical values including
the sound number. Then simply transpose one
Instrument by one octave, and you have a fat layer
sound. Or set them both to the same octave and
set Detune of one Instrument to –05 and the other
to +05
Low Vel 1…127
Low Vel allows you to limit the velocity range in which
the instrument is played. Only notes with a velocity
higher or equal to the selected value are passed through.
Set this parameter to 1, if you want to turn velocity
switching off.
