Pot dialin without sendin data
Changing bet een the color modes logically involves the un anted side effect, the rotation angle of a pot often
not corresponding the appropriate parameter value in your synth. Moving such a pot ill cause the synthesizer's
parameter to jump to the ne value immediately, causing a sometimes unpleasant sonic experiance.
Example on a Kor DW-8000: the synths delay level is at 0 % and you want to increase the delay level softly. After
switchin into the blue color mode you realize, the last pot in the second row for the delaylevel unfortunately is set fully
clockwize. If you would move the pot now, the delay level of the DW-8000 would most likely jump shortly to a hi h level,
even if you tried turnin the pot quickly to it's 0 % position.
We have a orkaround: pressing and holding an already lighted color-button will prevent the Synth
Controller's pots from sending data. Release the color-button and the messages ill be sent again - of course
from the ne pot position on.
For the upper example, we would hold the li hted blue color button, dial the pot to the left, release the button and start
to softly fade in the delay level dialin the pot clockwize.
Button Combinations and special modes
According to the edition you purchased, the one or other specialmode is available and can be engaged holding a
button combination. If more 'special modes' are available than explained here, they are described in detail in the
edition specific addendum you can do nload any time from sc-en.stereoping.com
All Notes off
It should not happen but for several reasons it mi ht happen that a ringing note of your synthesizer ill not stop
anymore. This is caused by a missing midi message called 'Note Off' hich as lost for some reason. It is not
necessary to po er your synth or the controller off and on again. For these occasion: to send an 'All Notes Off'
event to your synth, shortly press the button combination printed on the frontpanel. In most editions, the
combination consists of the upper 2 buttons.
