If CC+SYS is selected, all Sound parameters with a
dedicated controller assignment are sent as con-
troller messages. This is the recommended setting.
Control X
0...119
This parameter is used to define an arbitrary MIDI Con-
tinuous Controller as modulation sources for sounds.
Each value represents a MIDI Continuous Controller
number that is used when you assign its parameter as
modulation source in the Modulation Matrix. The hig-
hest possible Controller number is 119 because all hig-
her numbers are reserved for non-real-time purposes.
w
Nearly all Sound parameters of the Pulse 2 can
be controlled by MIDI Continuous Controller
messages. If you Control X to a controller that is
also used for a Sound parameter, the Pulse 2 dis-
ables this Controller as Sound parameter Control-
ler and uses it exclusively for Control X. This is
an important issue when you send Sound para-
meter 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 Control X to another MIDI Conti-
nuous Controller message.
Device ID
0...126
Defines the device identification number for system
exclusive data transmission.
System Exclusive data contains no MIDI channel infor-
mation so this ID is used to distinguish between several
Waldorf Pulse 2, if you have more than one Pulse 2 in
your setup.
Transmission will only be executed successfully if the
sender and receiver are set to the same ID. ID 127 is a
so-called broadcast ID that addresses all connected
Blofelds. The Pulse 2 can receive Sysex data broadcast
from other devices, but cannot send it itself. This func-
tion is limited to special computer software.
w
Firmware updates are stored with a Device ID of
127, so you don’t need to change the Device ID
on your Pulse 2 when you want to update it to a
newer firmware.
m
If you have only one Pulse 2, leave Device ID
on 0. There is no need at all to change this set-
ting to any other value.
