85 Blofeld User´s Manual
w
The most important Sound parameters of the Blofeld
can be controlled by MIDI Continuous Controller
messages. If you set one of the Ctrl W…Ctrl Z to a
Controller that is also used for a Sound parameter,
the Blofeld disables this Controller as Sound
parameter Controller and uses it exclusively for one
of the Ctrl W…Ctrl Z. This is an important issue when
you send Sound parameter changes by tweaking
parameters on the front panel. The Sound parameter
is sent out as Controller but can’t be received as long
as you don’t change Ctrl W…Ctrl Z to other MIDI
Continuous Controller messages.
Free Button (Blofeld Keyb. only) miscellaneous
This button can be defined with an assignable function.
• off - nothing happens when you press the Free
button.
• Sustain - The button acts like a sustain pedal. But
please use your fingers!
•
Sust. toggle - Also sustain, but it acts like an on/off
switch.
• Control W, X, Y, Z - the corresponding controller is
sent to internal sound engine and MIDI out.
• C. W, X, Y, Z toggle - Emits the assigned controller
but acts like an on/off switch.
•
mute - mutes Blofeld while pressed.
w
We omitted a Mute toggle function to minimize the
amount of muted Blofelds sent in for repair.
Pedal (Blofeld Keyboard only) normal / inverse
Determines the way, a connected switch pedal is
evaluated by the Blofeld Keyboard.
• normal is for a switch pedal that is closed when
pressed and open when not pressed.
• inverse is for a switch pedal that is open when pressed
and closed when not pressed.
